Originally titled Der müde Tod (The Weary Death), Destiny interweaves several different periods and approaches to storytelling into one of the most astonishing and moving works of the silent cinema. It established Fritz Lang's reputation as a director uniquely capable of translating ultimate concerns into expressive visual forms, and has inspired directors ranging from Alfred Hitchcock and Luis Buñuel to Ingmar Bergman. Presented in a tinted and toned restoration with an orchestral score from the Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau Stiftung (Weisbaden, Germany). Subtitles available.
