Set around a sick German man,
the film grapples with cultural barriers both
linguistically and visually in an attempt to showcase
our common bond: humanity
SYNOPSIS
Erik Klein is a dying German. George Callahan is a dead American.
Both men fought courageously in World War II during the Battle of the Bulge.
One left breathing. One left bleeding. Erik killed George with his bare hands.
Years later, afflicted with cancer, a bed-ridden Erik seeks redemption in his
final hours through a series of visions inspired by a small token he had stolen
from George only moments after taking his life. As Erik muses about what might
have been had their fates been reversed, we are forced to take a startling look at
empathy as it attempts to overcome cultural barriers. Germanity seeks to blend tasteful
surrealism with a silent, pensive stream of conscious narrative about human irony.
