The Passenger – Welcome to Germany
Drama/Society, United Kingdom/Germany 1988
Thomas Brasch's third feature film is a complex drama about guilt and atonement. In the leading role: Tony Curtis
An American filmmaker travels to modern day Berlin to make a film based on a real-life incident from 1942 in which 13 Jewish prisoners from a concentration camp were promised freedom if they appeared in a German propaganda film. Unfortunately, the Germans lied. The psychological process undergone by the modern filmmaker while shooting the story provides the basis of this arty and challenging film.
