Baroness and Air Pirate

Created at a time when European popular culture was teeming with heroic criminal figures, Baroness Troixmonde alias "Filibus" occupies a special position. As a respected member of good society, Baroness Troixmonde, in the guise of Filibus, wreaks her adventurous havoc from a futuristic zeppelin. Long before Marlene Dietrich, Filibus, in the role of the Count de la Briève, seduces the dancing femininity as a male dandy, of course not entirely without criminal ulterior motives. But detective Hardy is doggedly on her, or rather on his, trail...

We present this unjustly too little shown and well-known film with a new soundtrack by the Geneva alternative-tropical-new wave-kraut-punk band Massicot. Armed with an obsessive electric guitar, distorted electric bass, rhythmic drums and various electronics, the three ladies from Kalvingrad create the spherical driving soundtrack for this underrated milestone of early film history.
