| Credits: | Directed by Dziga Vertov |
Synopsis:Truly an experimental documentary, Dziga Vertov's masterpiece notably exemplifies the montage aesthetic of the Soviet avant-garde of the 1920's, juxtaposing shots quickly and presenting sped-up and slowed-down action. Using his own concept of the "kino eye" - the cinema's eye which illuminates the real world as not ordinarily seen - Vertov creates a city symphony depicting a day in the life of an urban metropolis.
