Novyy Vavilon (Eng:New Babylon) (1929), is a film directed Grigori Kozintsev and Leonid Trauberg. A black and white silent film (120 minutes in its original version and 93 minutes in its 2004 restored version). The film deals with the Paris Commune of 1871 and is largely set in a fantastic department store. New Babylon is also a concept by Dutch philosopher Constant Nieuwenhuys.

French description

Le film, plus qu'un produit de la propagande soviétique de l'époque, est une œuvre majeure qui s'inscrit brillamment dans la tradition expressionniste du début du siècle (exagération des formes et des contrastes par des angles de prise de vue improbables notamment). On y suit la rencontre et le destin tragique de deux amants amenés par les événements à se trouver de part et d'autre des barricades pendant la commune de Paris de 1871.
