_Programm 1: A Machine Dream
(orig. _Programm 1: Ein Maschinentraum)
1929
The young Soviet Union, gigantic cities, buzzing, uplifting, masses of people on their way to a brighter future. Vertov‘s film: the song of songs on the look of cinema itself. The camera (not its operator) looks at reality. A euphoric-media philosophical machine dream, communist futurism of the most daring kind.
