Festival Program
The Projection Festival at Film Factory Moskino will unite modern audiovisual technologies, multimedia art, and light performances. Over the course of two days, more than 10 artists will perform across the venues. The event will create a new format of urban cultural space at the intersection of cinema, music, and digital art.
On August 30, the festival’s main stage will feature Mohombi – singer, songwriter, and dancer, winner of several prestigious awards such as the Kora All African Music Awards and the Billboard Music Awards. His tracks have been streamed more than 550 million times worldwide.
On Sunday, August 31, Busta Rhymes will take the stage. The rapper, producer, and actor is a two-time winner of the BET Hip-Hop Awards and the MTV Europe Music Awards. His music has amassed over 650 million streams globally.
Moscow Cinema Cluster is becoming a popular destination not only for the film industry but also for the entire entertainment scene in the capital – from music to digital art. The Projection Festival demonstrates how technology can enhance the perception of art and transform urban spaces into the media environment of the future,- said Moskino’s press office.
The festival’s central visual installation will be an LED tunnel, transforming the park’s main alley into a cinematic corridor of light and motion. In the Moscow of the 1940s setting, video mapping will bring archival city life stories to life, reinterpreted through the lens of modern visual technologies. The facade of the clock tower will serve as the main projection screen.
Near the main stage, visitors will find a dynamic art installation – an airplane with animated lighting, creating a sense of motion and guiding the flow of spectators. The visual elements will be accompanied by music. Performances on stage will take the form of immersive shows, blending sound, light, and video into a single artistic space.
