Filmmaker Jim Jarmusch and musician Carter Logan’s band SQÜRL soundtrack four silent short films by the surrealist Man Ray. As SQÜRL’s cosmic score plays, Return to Reason (1923), Emak-Bakia (1926), L’Étoile de mer (1929), and Les Mystères du château de Dé (1927) form one unique piece.

Enchanted by the human subconscious, avant-garde visionary Man Ray boldly rearranged the laws of reality with his surrealist shorts. Guided by chance and dream logic, these hypnotic cinépoèmes find their sonic echoes in a lush new score from Jim Jarmusch’s band SQÜRL: this is pure cinematic alchemy.
