Dziga Vertov`s Man with a Movie Camera (1929) is a stunning avant-garde, documentary meta-narrative which celebrates Soviet workers and filmmaking. The film uses radical editing techniques and cinematic pyrotechnics to portray a typical day in Moscow from dawn to dusk. His film opens with a manifesto, a series of inter-titles telling us that this film is an ``experiment,`` a search for an ``absolute language of cinema`` that is ``based on its total separation from the language of literature and theatre``. And as a peoples` artist, Vertov felt that the peoples` cinema must ``introduce creative joy into all mechanical labor`` and ``foster new people.``
Directed by Dziga Vertov.
