This is a clear condemnation of the rise of evil and a statement on all the blood that was shed in the name of ultra-nationalism and antisemitism.

An Austrian outcast of a certain name, believing himself an unrecognized genius, scours for scapegoats for his fate. Listening to Wagnerian operas, he descends into a frenzied vision of blood, earth, iron, and fire, emerging from Arthurian legends and Norse myths. In his mind, a superman, through folk communion, imposes his will upon subjugated Europe. In the background, a small girl in a red coat, a haunting echo of "Schindler's List," weeps in the shadow of history.
