A new aesthetic-political movement - Russian Constructivism - conceives art as an instrument of social transformation, participates in the reconstruction of the way of life and the organization of the people's consciousness. The goal was not political art, but the socialization of art.
Metropolis is a science fiction feature film. The sets, full of buildings, machines, skyscrapers, as well as all the costumes, reveal all the madness that lived in the 1920s.
The existence of a tower that rewards maximum power at the top is an element present both in the history of Metropolis and in the myth of the Babel Tower. In both stories, there is the will of the workers to unify powers by extinguishing the existence of classes.
In addition to this principle, constructivism was born from a model called "Monument to the Third International" or "Tower of Tatlin" which also serves as a motto for the development of these works.
