Buster
Keaton's The Navigator is a silent comedy masterpiece that takes
slapstick to a new level. In this adventure film, Keaton and his co-star become
stranded on an abandoned luxury liner, leading to a series of hilarious
misunderstandings and unforgettable slapstick scenes. The complexity of the
stunts and the masterful composition show Keaton's unique ability to combine
physical comedy with precise storytelling.


The film uses the luxury liner as an almost claustrophobic backdrop and becomes a visual labyrinth of mishaps and absurdly funny situations. Keaton's innovative use of space and timing is one of the strengths of this film, which is one of the most famous and celebrated works of silent cinema. The Navigator remains a showcase of Keaton's extraordinary talent and is a pinnacle of silent comedy.

With his spectacular silent film concerts, Stephan Graf v. Bothmer fills theaters and concert halls on five continents. He has performed at the Schleswig-Holstein Festival and the Laeiszhalle in Hamburg, as well as in Berlin at the Admiralspalast, the Wintergarten Varieté and the Berlin Cathedral, as well as at the Rock-Pop Festival at Tempelhof Airport after Björk, Blur and the Pet Shop Boys.

Bothmer's compositions are characterized by an irrepressible joy of playing and virtuosity that combines echoes of Chopin, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd and electronic music in a unique way.
