Dear all,
You are warmly invited to the screening of the movie *Metropolis* (directed by Fritz Lang in 1927) on Wednesday, the 28. March, at 20.00 o'clock in the Social Center Tovarna Rog.

The central theme of the movie is the dualism between the capitalistic bourgeosie and the working class, which is overall described by the different living conditions: the rich people residing high above in a shining city while the working class lives in the misery underground of the futuristic town Metropolis. In the end the antagonism results in the formation of a collective identity subjective will and thus a revolution of the working class.
This polical plot, which deals with both fascism and capitalism, ideas of revolution of the working class, the role of parties or of the church, is shown within a futuristic scenery, avant-gardistic effects and ideas surroundings. The architectonial visualizations still set design standards that impress modern audiences with their visual impact.

Probably *Metropolis* is the most famous and influental movie of the period of silent movies besides Eisenstein's 'The Battleship Potemkin'.

Hoping to see you there,

Jonas
