A silent film that wants to show life in Berlin from sunrise to sunset.
Clearly the film was filmed to give an impressionistic view of Berlin as a city constantly in motion. Trains, cars, airplanes and people are seen always on the go. The editing is also fairly frantic at times which adds to the theme of a city in constant activity.
This film is not character driven, the only character is the city itself.
Berlin Symphony of a Great City is an interesting companion piece to
People On Sunday.
65 minutes.
