Berlin: Symphony Of A Great City (1927) - Live Score

David Dorad and Kuriose Naturale (Bar25, Sasomo, Kater Blau) head to our Cinema for a unique new live score to 'Berlin: die Symphonie der Großstadt' from 1927! Life in the big city is the theme of this classic silent film by Walter Ruttmann. Connected at a fast pace and associatively, the images show the course of a 24-hour day in pre-war Berlin. Ruttmann's 'symphony' is one of the first documentaries. Its emphasis on the rhythm of editing was revolutionary in those days.
