Three ages

Director: Buster Keaton, USA 1923, 63 min

Stone Age, ancient Rome and modern times: in all three eras, the weak Buster has to fight for a relationship with his beautiful lover. The stories always follow the same pattern: Buster courts a girl, but is rejected by her parents because his rival is stronger (Stone Age), more powerful (Ancient Rome) or richer (modern day).

Musical accompaniment: Eva Stortz (violin), Frank Ströber (Chapman stick and guitar)
