It's impossible not to compare this to Dziga Vertov's The Man With a Movie Camera, released two years later. Vertov, Ruttmann and others had been taking turns inspiring each other so there's no issue of plagiarism, but the films have some rather striking similarities, especially when it comes to visual motifs like trains, typewriters, machinery and more. But there are also differences. For example Vertov's film focuses more on people and less on the city itself than this does.
