Salome performs her last dance to BaBa ZuLa’s music!
BaBa ZuLa, the trailblazing band in Turkish psychedelic music scene, will breathe new life into the 1922 silent film classic Salome; a faithful adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s play of the same name, originally written in French as a musical in 1891 and banned for many years.

Based on the story of the Judean princess from the Bible and revolving around Salome who seduces her stepfather (who also happens to be her uncle) King Herod for revenge, Wilde's play initially caused a big sensation in the Victorian-era United Kingdom and was banned for many years. With this first film adaptation in 1922, the renowned avant-garde dancer Alla Nazimova’s eccentric rendition brings the story to the silver screen. Nazimova, who produced, co-wrote and co-directed the film with Charles Bryant, also portrays the devastatingly seductive Salome. Called the first American art house film upon release, Salome is a true classic that has been selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress in 2000.
