Genre: Documentary "Metropolis" (1927), "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" (1920), "M" (1931), "Nosferatu" (1922), "People on Sunday" (1930) and "Berlin, Symphony of a Metropolis" (1927) all rank among the classics and most influential films of European Cinema. Siegfried Kracauer, who wrote the groundbreaking book 'From Caligari to Hitler' (1947) on this 'Weimar Cinema', is a central figure, as is Fritz Lang, the most versatile of all Weimar directors. The viewer will encounter the cast members of the young Republic's stage: Marlene Dietrich, Louise Brooks, Emil Jannings, directors such as G.W. Pabst and F.W. Murnau, writers like Billy Wilder and many more - those who helped shape the new art of cinema.
