After the death of his brother Georg, John Vanderheit expects to inherit his fortune. Unfortunately, just before he died Georg made a will in which he bequeathed his entire estate to his wife, Irmgard. Unwilling to yield to John, Irmgard takes flight and undertakes a hazardous journey into the mountains. Here, she meets a kindly hermit who offers her shelter. John is not far behind, however, and when Imrgard repulses him he causes an avalanche in an attempt to kill her. Trapped in the hermit’s shelter, Irmgard’s new friend removes his hood – and reveals that he is her husband Georg... 　　Das Wandernde Bild marked the beginning of the fruitful collaboration of director Fritz Lang with writer Thea von Harbou. They married in 1922 and the couple would become the creative force behind some of the greatest German films of the pre-WWII era, works such as Dr. Mabuse, der Spieler (1922), Metropolis (1927) and M (1931). 　　Until quite recently, Das Wandernde Bild was thought to have been lost, the fate suffered by the majority of films made in the silent era. Fortunately, an incomplete print surfaced in Brazil and the film was partially restored in the late 1980s. Around a third of the film is missing, along with the script and inter-titles. Despite this, the restored film is surprisingly coherent and the lacuna are hardly noticed. 　　Das Wandernde Bild may not be Lang at his best (its main weaknesses being its slightly ludicrous plot and some embarrassing Perils of Pauline moments), but it amply demonstrates the director’s mastery of technique and flair for expression through the silent image. The film is most memorable for its beautifully realised location sequences, which appear to show the influence of Lang’s contemporaries, notably D.W. Griffith. (© James Travers 2009 )

From Mars to Earth and underneath. Above and Below is a rough and rhythmic roller coaster ride seating five survivors in their daily hustle through an apocalyptic world. A journey of challenges and beauty in uncomfortable places: Rick & Cindy, Godfather Lalo in the flood channels deep down under the shiny strip of Sin City. Dave in the dry and lonesome Californian desert and April in simulation for a Mars mission in the Utah desert. Through the hustle, the pain and the laughs, we are whisked away to an unfamiliar world, yet quickly discover the souls we encounter are perhaps not that different from our own.

"Das Kino und der Tod/Cinema and Death"(1988), is one of his 'Cinema Anthology' ,which was made by extraordinary Bitomsky's voice and movement of his hands that turn over photos of murder in films.It's 'a film noir as a film essay which analyzes film noir'. When he analyzes classic films like Hitchkock's "Torn Curtain",Lang's "Hangmen also die", Siegel's "The Killers",Aldrich's "Kiss me deadly",etc, each viewer tries to remake the images that always becomes uncertain in the memory,with the movement of Bitomsky's hands and voice as a detective showing photos of evidence of murders. There is an astonishing moment of new discovery of the image which we remember as a movement of the film.
