WORLD PREMIERE FILM SCREENING: YAKUZA PLAYS “THE GOLEM” – A CONCERT FILM. MUSIC BY CHICAGO BAND YAKUZA | PRODUCED BY DENNIS BEST

Join us at the movies! Der Golem (1920), directed by Paul Wegener and Carl Boese, is an early horror landmark of German Expressionism. In 16th-century Prague, Rabbi Löw shapes a man of clay to protect the Jewish ghetto from a hostile emperor. Awakened by a demon and a mystical amulet, the Golem is first a protector, then a force of ruin once others bend him to their own ends. Formed in Chicago in July 1999, Yakuza has spent a quarter century between metal and the avant-garde, with seven releases including Way of the Dead, Of Seismic Consequence and Sutra (Svart Records, 2023). Band and Film Maker will be in attendance! Buy Now
