The bustling streets of 1920's Berlin are writ-large in this entrancing 'city symphony'.

Like other famous 'city films' such as Man With a Movie Camera, Ruttmann's portrait of Berlin is a dynamic mix of man and machine, social norms and daily life, a captivating vision of Berlin between the wars.

Special outdoor screening.
