Irina Titova is the »Queen of Sand« and knows like no other how to bring the fleetingness of the moment to the screen for a magical moment. She has been captivating audiences since 2018 on her first tour of Germany, taking them on a sensational journey ‘Around the World in 80 Pictures’ and will now finally make many eyes light up in 2025 with a new sand painting show. It’s off to »The fabulous world of film«. The audience accompanies a young man on his exciting journey and immerses itself in the most beautiful and famous film scenes from Hollywood’s dream factory. At breathtaking speed, the Sand Queen creates her images on a glass disc illuminated from below, which are projected onto a screen. Here, the protagonist made of sand meets all the big and small heroes and heroines of our favourite films. He meets the alien E.T., who so desperately wants to phone home, and comforts him with true friendship in his homesickness. He flies across the oceans with the lucky dragon Falkor from »The Neverending Story«, travels with Marty McFly and Doc Brown in the DeLorean »Back to the Future«, hears the famous song in »Casablanca« once again with Ingrid Bergman, and finally eats chocolates on the legendary park bench as Forrest Gump.
