Right in the Eye is a live performance set to 12 films by Georges Méliès, a pioneer of the Cinema and a wizard of special effects.

Created by Jean-François Alcoléa and praised by the Great-Great-Granddaughter of legendary filmmaker and cinematographer Georges Méliès, Right in the Eye features a captivating, multi-layered score performed by three virtuoso musicians, offering an amazing emotional voyage. Using an extraordinary range of instruments—including piano, percussion, guitar, and unique oddities like the aquaphone, theremin, and even plastic take-out lids—the musicians bring new life to Méliès’ films. Their mesmerizing music evokes the technical wizardry and playful creativity that defined his work.
