Queen Live: "Tribute to Freddy"
1978-80 - 10:30 mins

Conceived, produced, directed and edited by: Alberto Engeli

The trip started in 1978 from the Zürich Hallenstadion Stage dust....

A trip made of Rock music, emotions, "...20 years old...", rebellion, vibrations, 2 Super 8 cameras and 8 rolls of film....

To steal an image to make it your own, to materialize the strong feeling of an EVENT like that concert was ELECTRIFYING....

A blend of emotions to give as a gift to your friends...
A unique happening to share with others...
Then the crowd, dust, heat, rhythms, new and known sounds,
And again people moving around
...The SPIRIT OF MUSIC...

so on a Super 8 film of a young filmmaker 13 minutes of Freddy Mercury &Co., "The Queens" were printed and not only that....

Another trip started in1980... Same feelings, same sensations, same band, same EVENT
This time only one Super 8 camera... Another 6 minutes stolen from the uniqueness of an event that was destined to end in the same moment it was born...destined to relive only as a souvenir....

And the trip continues...Those sensations relive on those films where other dust has fallen... and also Freddy has left us...leaving maybe also for this, a big huge empty spot, like a big slice of life was gone.....

So....to continue the trip.....
A TRIBUTE TO FREDDY....
So also other people could relive those concerts sensations...Fortunately printed on film... like a Freddy's gift...

The IDEA was born...
To edit those magic images
For you to relive and enjoy those magic moments...
Absolutely for free!!!!
