Details

A comedy of the German soul. Each year a former SS officer (now a high-ranking judge) celebrates the birthday of his one-time mentor Himmler. As he nears retirement he looks back fondly on the atrocities he has committed and draws his two sisters into a bizarre ritual of cruelty, incest and humiliation.
