THE GODDESS

A Silent Film Concert Experience

Saturday | May 23 | 7:00PM - 9:30PM
Barrymore Film Center, Fort Lee

​This isn't just a movie. This isn't just a concert. It's vintage cinema × live music × old Shanghai vibes — fully immersive and utterly unforgettable. 

​​

Why You Can't Miss This:

The Goddess (1934) — Ruan Lingyu's masterpiece. A mother fighting with everything she has to protect her child. Zero dialogue. Pure expression. A performance from 90 years ago that still hits different. One night to transport you straight to the golden era of 1930s–40s Shanghai.
