Man With a Movie Camera is an extraordinary piece of filmmaking. An exuberant montage of urban Russia, it represents the people of the city at work and at play, and the machines that keep the city going with energetic lyricism. A member of the Soviet avant-garde, Vertov used a variety of pioneering cinematic techniques to document the full spectrum of 1929 Soviet life —dissolves, split screen, slow motion and freeze frames—and produced a radical experiment that is exhilarating and intellectually brilliant.
This release is features a new soundtrack composed by the renowned Michael Nyman, and performed by the Michael Nyman Band.
