  the 1930's. Sometime before dark\, a gypsy caravan sets up camp in a fiel
 d outside of town\, luring the locals out for an evening?s fun. The wander
 ers travel with a film projector\, pointing it at the side of a barn. As t
 he images flicker to life beneath the stars\, gypsy musicians play their g
 uitars and fiddles\, matching every movement on the screen with characteri
 stic virtuosity\, passion and humor. Returning to the MFA after their sold
 -out summer concert and reviving this lost entertainment\, The Hot Club of
  San Francisco presents Cinema Vivant\, an evening of vintage silent films
  accompanied by live gypsy swing.\n\nCinema Vivant is a celebration of ima
 gination and innovation. Before World War I\, European filmmaker Ladislaw 
 Starewicz pioneered stop-action animation\, creating a never-before-seen m
 ovie experience. A gifted storyteller who used the new medium of animation
  to illuminate his fantastic imaginings of the secret lives of ordinary ob
 jects\, Starewicz has become an obscure cult hero. Two Starewicz films are
  featured in Cinema Vivant?The Cameraman's Revenge\, a charming piece abou
 t the marital troubles of beetles and The Mascot\, an adventure story abou
 t lost toys. On the other side of the Atlantic\, American Charley Bowers r
 evolutionized the industry in the 1920?s by combining animation with live 
 action. There It Is\, a recently rediscovered film by Bowers\, is a whimsi
 cal comedy about a mysterious occurrence investigated by Scotland Yard.\n
 \nFilm Titles:\nThere It Is\, Charley Bowers (1928)\nThe Cameraman's Reven
 ge\, Ladislaw Starewicz (1912)\nThe Mascot\, Ladislaw Starewicz (1933)\n\n
