LIMBO

The two-day program, situated at the intersection of live music, cinema, and performance, features artist-led workshops, performances, and screenings where live soundscapes merge with silent classic films.

Musicians like Islaja, Latvusto, Vesa-Matti, and Kuupuu, along with performance artists such as Mikko Niemistö and Marika Peura, will explore the concept of Limbo—a space of uncertainty and transition. This liminal zone, suspended in the present, invites us to embrace the unknown, where the blurring of boundaries between sound, image, and narrative opens up new possibilities. Limbo encourages audiences to navigate this transitional space, allowing unforeseen connections and new realities to emerge.
