The Passenger - Welcome to Germany
Film by Thomas Brasch (Germany/Switzerland/UK 1988)
In this 1988 film, Tony Curtis plays a Hollywood director who returns to Germany for a film project in order to get to the bottom of his own past. As a minor extra, he had worked on a Nazi film during the war. His friend died during filming in an unexplained way. Thomas Brasch's film uses artfully stylized scenes to explore questions of guilt, betrayal and the search for truth.
