Info
Brief Overview: Germany, 1921 Director: Fritz Lang Screenplay: Fritz Lang, Thea von Harbou Duration: 93 minutes
Synopsis: Romantic mood and resignation dominate this novella-style film, in which Death, weary of his duties, longs to be “defeated” by a young girl. Equally striking is the entire “main plot”: the scenes set in a romantically winding German town with its quirky characters, and the scene in the majestically dark Hall of Life Candles.
Version: New music for organ and percussion by Wilfried Kaets.
Performers: Peter Thomas – Percussion Wilfried Kaets – Organ
