 Fritz Lang's
classic silent-film fantasy of a futuristic society, really incredibly
revolutionary for its time with unusual camera angles and special
effects. Metropolis follows the tale of an upper-class young
man, the son of a wealthy capitalist, who abandons his life of
luxury to join the oppressed factory workers in a revolt.
