NEW DELHI: The film Back to the Future will mark its 30th anniversary next May in a manner that will make it sound like new.

Select concert venues will present Robert Zemeckis’s time-jumping blockbuster along with a live orchestra performing Alan Silvestri’s memorable score in sync with the film.

The film made in 1985 showed how a young man is accidentally sent 30 years into the past in a time-traveling DeLorean invented by his friend, Dr Emmett Brown, and must make sure his high-school-age parents unite in order to save his own existence.

The classic was directed by Robert Zemeckis, written by Zemeckis and Bob Gale and starred Michael J Fox, Christopher Lloyd, and Lea Thompson in lead roles.

The world premiere of the live-music cinematic event—a joint collaboration between Universal, IMG Artists, and the Gorfaine/Schwartz Agency—will be performed by the 21st Century Orchestra in Lucerne, Switzerland in late May.

Alan Silvestri, who worked with Zemeckis on 14 movies, is also writing 15 minutes of new music for the film that will be performed exclusively at these anniversary screenings.
