- Synopsis:
- Of all the tales from Weimar Germany there is none stranger than that of Zishe Breitbart (Jouko Ahola). He was a Jewish blacksmith's son who became a sensation in Berlin in the 1930s performing as a mythical Nordic-style strongman. His employer was con-man, cabaret show promoter and self-proclaimed mystic Hanussen (Tim Roth) who dreamed of forming a Ministry of the Occult in Hitler's government. As anti-Semitism took hold, Hanussen's star act decides he has been chosen by God to warn his people.
