Description:

Set in pre-World War II Germany, this historical drama follows a gifted stage actor who gains unexpected fame for his powerful performance as Faust in a controversial play. As Nazism rises, his friends are exiled or persecuted. His fame increasingly eclipses his own sense of self, forcing him to navigate a dangerous path between artistic freedom and pleasing his Nazi supporters. Caught in a moral dilemma, the protagonist confronts the risks of fame and collaboration during a dark period in history.
