Synopsis
Socialism is the 20th century’s great dream, and source of some of its darkest nightmares. Socialism is also an essay in film: what film can convey, how it builds illusions, and sometimes lies. A mosaic that orchestrates Von Bagh’s life-long career as a film historian and his dearest film genre, collage.
