This ethereal three‑hour biopic, the middle entry of Hans‑Jürgen Syberberg’s “German Trilogy,” probes the mythic roots of the Third Reich. Through a blend of theater, music and cinema, Syberberg portrays Karl May (1842‑1912), the hugely popular German writer whose romanticized Wild‑West adventures and Ubermensch narratives captivated readers—including Adolf Hitler, who allegedly urged his generals to study May after setbacks on the Russian front.
