The head is afraid, the hands are doing.

"There must be a heart between the head and the hands"

Metropolis is far from a fairy tale city, a city of dreams. And not everyone would want to wake up one day in this crazy city.

Frader is the son of a magnate who runs the Metropolis of Johann Fenderson. Goes into the underground city and finds out the terrible secrets of this wretched place. And decides to fight evil with their own hands.

"There must be a heart between the head and the hands"

This film is like a grotesque to modern society. It shows the social inequality between the head (that is, the power of the city) and hands (the working class of society, on which the status of the city depends). Also in the film, many Bible stories are the Tower of Babel, 7 sins, the messenger of the world.

I was impressed by the film with its scale. 1926, and in the movie incredible scenes with thousands of people and huge scenery, a variety of special effects and incredibly expressive acting. All this in the compartment creates a futuristic picture of the future in which people like cars, and the machine takes a higher place than the person himself.

In general, the film is actual and to this day, those topics that he touches on are far from exhausted, but cause interest with each generation.
