Yeah Yeah Yeahs present HIDDEN IN PIECES, a 22-minute visual companion-piece to their upcoming live record, followed by a screening of MULHOLLAND DRIVE, specifically selected by the band to accompany the short film which is dedicated to David Lynch's memory.

HIDDEN IN PIECES is directed by award-winning filmmaker Barnaby Clay, who said he “wanted to create a film that not only captured the live performance but also felt close to the spirit of what the band was going for with their shows; something delicate and dream-like, like a precious memory, timeless, emotionally charged and shrouded in mystery.”

Screening for one night only on Monday 21 September, 7pm at Lido. Each ticket purchase comes with a limited edition Hidden in Pieces poster. LPs of 'Hidden in Pieces: Live at The Royal Albert Hall' will be available for purchase on the night. Tickets are on sale now.

“An essential, galvanising watch.” (Screen International). “Equal parts sobering and rousing.” (ScreenHub). “An important watch, an uncomfortable watch.” (The Australian).

Critics and festival audiences agree, Selina Miles and Blayke Hoffman’s SILENCED is a must-watch. Step inside the courtroom of some of this decade’s most high-profile gender-based violence legal battles and discover the struggle beyond the headlines. Following international human rights lawyer Jennifer Robinson, SILENCED brings unrivalled access to the women and journalists at the centre of these stories, including Brittany Higgins, Catalina Ruiz-Navarro, and Amber Heard.

Fresh out of MIFF, see SILENCED at Lido from tomorrow, Thursday 3 September.
