Brandenburg Gate in the early morning, Berlin 1932

A car drives through the central archway of the Brandenburg Gate on Pariser Platz, while the boulevard Unter den Linden is barely visible in the morning haze beyond. Built by Carl Gottfried Langhans in the late 18th century, the landmark remained the undisputed symbol of the German capital at the time. The empty stillness of early morning contrasts with the crowded street and traffic scenes shown later in the film's portrait of Berlin's bustling daily life.
