In celebration of the world premiere screening of Acute Misfortune, the MIFF Festival Lounge presents a special performance by the film’s composer and award-winning musician Evelyn Ida Morris.

Evelyn released their first album as Pikelet in 2007, and has since released four albums under that name. They have won the Age Music Victoria Award for Best Experimental Musician and been shortlisted for the Australian Music Prize. They have toured extensively as Pikelet, and with other projects. They have a long history with the piano and improvised music, and recently released their first album of piano compositions under their own name with Milk! Records to much critical acclaim.
