Thanks to IndieWire’s blog for mentioning Marika’s performance at the Egyptian Theater’s annual Focus on Female Directors night.

Eleanor’s Catch” – dir. Cleo Madison
Made in 1918, the evening began with a look back at the historical presence of women in film with writer/director/actress Cleo Madison‘s short silent film “Eleanor’s Catch.”  A comedy-caper with a twist ending, the drama was appropriately amplified with the addition of a live score.  Program organizers invited musician Marika Tjelios to play accompaniment to the short in a performance that exemplified the true impact soundtrack can have on storytelling.
