Fritz Lang’s silent film of 1927 is set in a dystopian city of the future, divided between a wealthy upper town and the workers toiling below. Freder, the son of the city’s ruler, and Maria, whom the workers regard as almost a saint, try to bridge the gulf between the classes. Thea von Harbou wrote the script together with Lang, and the cast includes Gustav Fröhlich, Brigitte Helm and Alfred Abel. It is one of the first feature-length science-fiction films, and in 2001 it became the first film inscribed on UNESCO’s Memory of the World Register.
