Another chance to catch the restored version of this iconic sci-fi classic.

One of the most famous German films of all time, this restoration of Metropolis is almost certainly the most complete and authentic version possible of Lang’s original 1927 vision.  Metropolis takes place in 2026, where people are divided into two groups: poor workers living beneath the ground and the rich who enjoy a futuristic city of luxury. The tense balance of these two societies is realised through images that are among the most famous of the 20th century.  Lavish and spectacular, with elaborate sets and jaw dropping production values, Metropolis stands today as a testament to Lang’s ambitious vision of what cinema could be.

This screening of Metropolis will be introduced by Dr Bruce Bennett from Lancaster University's Department of Media, Film and Cultural Studies.
