Synopsis: Cuts From the Crypt (2025) traces a stripped-down recording and live session in an unused underground facility—documenting raw music-making in the few spaces left behind by the logics of commodification dominating today’s spatial and cultural organisation in European cities. Recorded in Frankfurt Main (De) during the nightly curfews of the Covid-19 pandemic, when public gatherings, musical events, and other cultural expressions were strictly regulated.
