Transmission 2015

Everything in life is better if shared. The Seventh Art is always mixing with the other arts. A loyal partner has always been music, the root of the Transmission programme. The poet and playwright William Shakespeare said, "If music be the food of love, play on". But the legendary guitarist Keith Richards, who will be featured this year, concludes: "After the food, air, water and heat, music is the next necessity of life." We add the cinema. Then we explore the multiple relationships between music and the moving images. In addition to a documentary about the Rolling Stones guitarist (Keith Richards: Under the Influence), look carefully to the return of Blur's Damon Albarn (Blur: New World Towers). However, life is not only pop, culture, sex, drugs and rock and roll, is also the sense of Phill Niblock minimalism! Transmission is also live music, with concerts (Oupa Project by André Tentugal, mentor of We Trust, and Capicua), DJ SETS and the closing party of the festival. The goal is to grow the audience that accompanies us. One reason for the success of this section was the choice of places, separated only by a street, which we keep in the second edition: Passos Manuel, Maus Hábitos and Rivoli.
