Description: Experience the real Babylon Berlin of the 1920's. AI enhanced with deep learning techniques. From dawn until dusk in three minutes. Berlin of the Weimar Republic was a multi-cultural city. Teeming with flappers,bobbed hair,cloche hats, and the dancing girls of Berlin's infamous Cabaret scene. By 1924, post WW1 Germany's economy had stabilized and crime began to decline. This era was known as the "Golden Years" of Weimar. Berlin in particular saw a cultural explosion. The 1929 Crash and Great Depression which followed it, saw an end to democracy and the rise of fascism. This is a short AI enhanced edit of the Walther Ruttmann classic silent documentary film. Berlin : Symphony of a Great City 1927. archive.org/details/BerlinSymphonyofaGreatCity In no way, do we wish to detract from the original film. As a fan of the 'silent' film genre, it is truly a masterpiece of the film style known as 'actuality'. Stunning to watch in all it's glory and at it's original frame length. Hopefully this short edit, which is primarily focused on Berlin's women, will help introduce a host of new fans to the work of Walther Ruttmann. AI Restoration Process: 1.
