Equinox travels to The Aosta Valley for this summer’s INSOLITI Festival. Expect astrological visuals, standing stones, scenes of the abundance of nature and harvests past, woven together by Stuart Sloan to a live score by Róis.
The show was originally commissioned by Rosie Le Garsmeur for the Ulster Folk Museum with funds from the BFI’s Film Audience Network. Using archival footage from Northern Ireland Screen's Digital Film Archive and BBC Rewind with a score incorporating archive recordings from the Ulster Folk Museum.
Róis is an Irish composer, multi-instrumentalist and performer whose songs explore diverse modes of expression; forging a blend of folk and haunting Sean-nós with electronic soundscapes, jazz harmony and extended vocal techniques.
