Synopsis

In a gripping parable that transplants the chilling rise of Hitler to the gritty underworld of 1930s North America, gangster boss Arturo Ui plots his ascent to power. Desperate for legitimacy, Ui seeks the backing of the influential ruling class, offering them a devil's bargain. At first, they balk, but as Ui's ruthless tactics alter the landscape, they are coerced into alliance. With a chilling mastery, Ui silences the masses, their voices drowned out by the crack of revolvers wielded by those who claim to protect them. In their fear and submission, Ui finds his triumph sealed, mistaking their surrendering hands for gestures of loyalty. This cinematic adaptation draws from Bertolt Brecht's powerful play, penned in 1941 amidst his Finnish exile, and immortalized on stage by the Berliner Ensemble, showcasing the haunting echoes of history through an unflinching lens.
