The UNESCO Office in Kathmandu is organizing an open-air screening of Metropolis, a 1927 film directed by Fritz Lang, to celebrate the World Day for Audiovisual Heritage on 17 October 2011. The event is being held to raise awareness about the importance of audiovisual documents as an integral part of national heritage; the world’s memory; and the need to preserve them for future generations. A 2001 reconstruction of Metropolis, shown at the Berlin Film Festival in that same year, was the first film to be inscribed on UNESCO’s Memory of the World Register.
