One of the masterpieces of German film expressionism and jewels of the world cinema is built as a spectacular clash between good and evil, eternity and transcience, light and darkness. Through revolutionary visual effects and vivid contrasting compositions Murnau uses light as a mystic substance which transforms the „dark matter“ of human soul.
