Live film narration, or "neo-benshi" is a format used for rescripting & reinterpreting scenes from feature films. On stage narrators (the Japanese term is benshi ) use words alone to infiltrate and subvert the muted scenes. Unsuspecting, clipped and muzzled films undergo live overdubbing as writers sync themselves to the silver screen.

Amanda Davidson torches "Firestarter" - Rodney Koeneke reanimates "The Golem" - Wayne Smith revamps "Darling" - Stephanie Young cries out "Viva L'Amour" - Jen Nellis antidotes "Poison" (Hitchcock Presents) - Konrad Steiner disputes "Minority Report" - David Brazil shaves "The Man who Wasn't There"
