                                <description><![CDATA[In 2026,&#160;The Invincible Czars&#160;celebrate 100 years of the silent masterpiece&#160;Faust&#160;(2026,&#160;FW Murnau) by performing their tastefully modern soundtrack live with the movie at theatres in the US and Canada. Their brand new electrifying score marries new and old elements of classical music, bossa nova and even a touch of heavy metal to bring the movie to life for contemporary audiences and incorporates a mix of instruments like flute, violin and electric guitar.&#160; ABOUT THE FILMAn elderly alchemist named Faust (G&#246;sta Ekman) makes a pact with the demon Mephisto (Emil Jannings) to gain the power to protect his village from plague. Faust soon succumbs to temptation and asks Mephisto to restore his youth and help him acquire all the hedonistic pleasures that earth can offer. Eventually, his love affair with a young woman named Gretchen (Camilla Horn) leads to tragic and devastating consequences for them both. Faust&#160;is the quintessential &#8220;deal with the devil&#8221; tale based on a centuries-old European legend. The legend inspired Johann Wofgang Goethe&#8217;s 1808 play which is considered Germany&#8217;s greatest literary work. Virtually every &#8220;sell your soul&#8221; type story from the film&#160;Crossroads&#160;to songs like &#8220;The Devil Went Down To Georgia&#8221; owes a debt to&#160;Faust&#160;whether the creators know it or not.&#160; ABOUT THE SOUNDTRACKThe Invincible Czars&#8217;s score for&#160;Faust&#160;is mostly original material inspired by film score composers like&#160;Bernard Herrman&#160;and&#160;John Williams&#160;peppered with and cinematic metal a la&#160;Fantomas&#160;and even a little&#160;Marcos Valle-esque bossa nova. The band keeps their tradition of incorporating music from Russian classical composers, revisiting their renditions of Mussorgsy&#8217;s&#160;Pictures at an Exhibition&#160;and&#160;A Night on Bald Mountain&#160;in particular for this soundtrack. Five players perform the score live on violin, electric guitar, clarinet, bass clarinet, flute, glockenspiel, keyboard and drums.&#160; ABOUT THE BANDThe Invincible Czars have made a name for themselves among horror and classic film lovers in the US and Canada with their original, tastefully modern live soundtracks for silent films which they started creating for the original Alamo Drafthouse in their hometown of Austin, TX in 2007, though they began making their whacky brand of cinematic rock in 2003. They are great at using music and sound to transform century-old movies into immersive and engaging experiences that allow audiences to approach, appreciate, and enjoy the depth and innovation of classic silent film. Czars shows are a lot of fun with opportunities for audience participation and costumery.&#160;&#160;WATCH THE TRAILER You can see the trailer here.&#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Join NBC News Homeland Security Correspondent Julia Ainsley for a special conversation about her new book, Undue Process: The Inside Story of Trump's Mass Deportation Program. Ainsley draws on years of investigative reporting to provide an inside look at the policies, politics, and people behind one of the most consequential immigration efforts in modern American history. &#160; Following the discussion, Ainsley will discuss her work, answer audience questions, and sign books. Julia was raised in Raleigh and is now one of the nation's leading immigration reporters. &#160; The conversation will be moderated by Emily Stephenson, Managing Editor of The Assembly. Emily was previously economic policy editor at The Wall Street Journal, news editor at&#160;POLITICO, and a politics and financial regulation reporter at&#160;Reuters. &#160; About Undue Process A revealing, news driven account of the Trump Administration&#8217;s mass deportation program, featuring never-before-told stories and behind-the-scenes reporting from NBC News&#8217; Senior Homeland Security Correspondent. In&#160;Undue Process, NBC&#8217;s Senior Homeland Security correspondent Julia Ainsley takes us inside the Trump White House to show how Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Tom Homan, and other anti-immigration hardliners are executing the administration&#8217;s mass deportation plan, seemingly prioritizing spectacle and punishment over security and legal constraints. Brimming with revelations from sources within ICE and the Department of Homeland Security, Undue Process is a harrowing chronicle of how the Trump administration aimed to create &#8220;the largest deportation force in U.S. history,&#8221; only to ignite a resistance within the government and across the country as they redefined the limits of executive power.]]></description>
