Nosferatu - A Film Like A Vampire

PLAY


An imaginary ghost train ride through 100 years of film and music history.

One of the most popular silent films is 100 years old: Friedrich W. Murnau's "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror". The influence of the original horror film can still be felt today - in music videos, films, paintings and comics.

How could "Nosferatu" become a masterpiece of film history, and how could its pictures develop such a long-lasting life of their own? What remakes did the film provoke, and how do the creatives of our time see this film? With the character of Nosferatu as a shadow incarnate, the documentary embarks on an adventurous journey through the 100-year history of the legendary film.
