Bali 1928: Live Score Cinema

In the late 1920s, researchers and collectors captured Bali's ceremonies, rituals, gamelan orchestras, and everyday life. They pressed recordings into shellac and stored it all in archives abroad. For decades, this material remained largely inaccessible to the island it belonged to. Arsip Bali 1928 has spent years repatriating it from collections across Europe and the US, restoring it, and returning it home.

Narrated by cultural archivist Marlowe Bandem, Bali 1928: Live Score Cinema resurfaces that footage every Sunday, mid of the month through the end of 2026. A rare archival film with a live score and live narration, each edition a meeting of past and present.
