30 maltatoday, SUNDAY, 27 OCTOBER 2013 THIS WEEK THIS WEEK WHAT'S ON WHAT'S ON TODAY In Guardia Parade Historical military re-enactment at St John's Cavalier, Birgu from 11:00. Tickets at the gate: €7 (adults), €3 (children). The Lost Epigraph Trilogy Three short films by Dustin Cauchi will be screened at St James Cavalier Cinema, Valletta. The films are: Adieu Friedrich (2012), Sant Sant (2013) and Fenetre Fenetre (2013). The films will run for a total runtime of 55 minutes. The three films are not related to each other in terms of narrative or progressive conventions, but rather share temporal characteristics, namely that of starting off at a particular, arbitrary point. This arbitrary beginning, understood as a lack of introduction that the films share, gave rise to the idea of a 'lost epigraph'.
