Boston's Alloy Orchestra performs an original score for this legendary 1929 silent film.

A ground-breaking documentary –-- and banned at one time in the Soviet Union –-- "Man" has since become one of the most celebrated and influential films of all time. Fillmaker Dziga Vertov took to the streets of Moscow, Kiev and Odessa to fashion this exhilarating, day-in-the-life portrait of an industrialized society on the rise. The result is one of the most innovative films of the silent era, a kinetic ode to urbanization.

Presented as part of the Three Rivers Film Festival. Tickets are available from ProArts Tickets by calling (412) 394-3353.
