A monumental reinterpretation of texts by writers such as Heinrich von Kleist and Friedrich Hölderlin, The Night shares with Hitler, a Film from Germany (1977) and Parsifal (1982) a deep interest in time, scale, and ritual. The film marks a decisive turn in Syberberg's work, a clearing away of studio technology and a renewed concentration on gesture and light. Presented in five parts with newly updated English subtitles.
