Man with a Movie Camera (1929)
Movie
Released
67 minutes, restored silent version. Dziga Vertov turns a city waking and working into an experiment in how film can see. Split screens, changing speeds and playful editing make streets, factories and spectators feel newly active. This restored silent presentation is a lively older discovery, with the pleasure coming from movement and visual invention rather than a conventional story.
