Metropolis, Report from China
To the Film:
42 min / Realized with Clemens von Wedemeyer / colour / 2006
A
convergence of two mythsÑthe modern totalitarianism depicted in Fritz LangÕs
Metropolis in 1926 and modern China, whose staggering growth obsesses the West.
In Variation sur Metropolis, one fiction meets another.
In 2004, we
travelled to China in order to prepare a re-adaptation of the feature film
Metropolis.
These are
the materials we collected during our research, the interviews we conducted and
the discussions we have had with the workers and the architects of Chinese
cities.
