Βερολίνο: Συμφωνία μιας Μεγάλης Πόλης
Berlin: Symphony of a Great City
Πολυπρόσωπο, ατμοσφαιρικό ντοκιμαντέρ
Μια ημέρα στην πόλη του Βερολίνου, η οποία γνώρισε μια βιομηχανική άνθηση στη δεκαετία του 1920, και προσφέρει μια εικόνα για τις συνθήκες διαβίωσης και εργασίας εκείνης της εποχής. Η Γερμανία είχε μόλις ανακάμψει από τις χειρότερες συνέπειες του Πρώτου Παγκοσμίου Πολέμου, η μεγάλη οικονομική κρίση ήταν ακόμη λίγα χρόνια μακριά και ο Χίτλερ δεν αποτελούσε ακόμη ζήτημα εκείνη την εποχή.

75Man-made wonderment and alienation - a thriving city in the midst of industrial complexity, giving way to nonhuman disposal and towering evil.
After spending a week in Berlin, it only felt right to revisit the city in celluloid. This artefact had only ever been a historical footnote and a poetic title in my mind. Yet it’s modest runtime contains within it absolute majesty befitting this metropolis. From the ripples of the Spree to the flight of a locomotive, we cut across Berlin to the persistent beat of a rhythmic drum. Architecture, industry, and burgeoning technology compete for the limelight. The camera is the upmost diplomat covering all and capturing the minutiae of modernity in between. There is solipsistic beauty to be found in the crooked crease of a blended blind, the curious prowl of the city’s stray cats, the copious smoke billowing from trains, chimneys and cigarettes alike. The Weimar machine ticking away as darkness broods below its veneer of functionality. Inevitable turmoil awaiting in the distance, ready to shatter this proud vision of human prosperity.It is so much more than a dusty document of history. Through the Symphony of the a Great City, Berlin breathes. It lives forever.
