In the pioneering science fiction feature film, Metropolis tells the story of man and machines living alongside one another, whether one rules the other or enslaves the other no one can truly know for sure: unless you live in the privileged The Tower of Babel. The fate of the city changes forever when the 'Maschinenmensch', under the guise of the saintly woman Mariah, determines the fate of all Metropolis and tries turning the city's ruling class and the working class against each other.—Johnny-the-Film-Sentinel-2187
