Syberberg's first film in three decades, Demmin Cantos is one of his most surprising. Characteristically dense and ambitious, it is also centripetal in structure and unusually specific geographically. The Western Pomeranian town of Demmin was the site of shocking events during the final week of the Second World War, and the film includes the personal accounts of the town's residents. Both an act of mourning and revival, Demmin Cantos is a prismatic reflection upon the paradoxes of history.
