MAN WITH A MOVIE CAMERA: Dziga Vertov, USSR 1929. 65mins.
Take one of the most extraordinary pieces of film-making and add the distinctive live sounds of Sheffield-based band IN THE NURSERY. Possibly the most innovative movie ever made, Vertov’s classic is a montage of Moscow life showing the people of the city at work and at play, and the machines that keep the city going.
In The Nursery’s score utilises the latest music technology to create a syncopated and alluring soundtrack that embraces the progressive film-making of director Vertov.
“A truly radical and liberating work”
