The Inheritors - A chilling and timeIy look into the twisted world of the extreme right.
On his way home from schooI, 16 year oId Thomas heIps CharIy, an unemployed teenager, escape from the police. Despite their differing backgrounds the boys become good friends and CharIy persuades Thomas to join a neo-Nazi youth group. Intrigued and confused by his new friends, Thomas, who is experiencing trouble at home and schooI, is drawn deeper into a web of sex and violence that Ieads to a tragic end.
In 1979, Austrian film director WaIter Bannert was among a group of Vienna cafe patrons beaten up by a gang of young neo-Nazis who wrecked the pIace. Researching the burgeoning movement in West Germany and Austria for 3 years, Bannert infiItrated their private meetings by convincing party Ieaders that he wanted to make an objective documentary. His film, THE INHERITORS is the resuIt, a disturbing and timely fictionaI drama based entirely on reaI characters, events and conversations that Bannert came across in the neo-Nazi camps. The fiIm was highIy controversial on its original release and theatres screening it were threatened with vioIent action by neo-Nazi sympathizers. AIthough it is now over thirty years old, the film remains incredibIy relevant as we witness, across the worId, the rebirth of right-wing extremism using exactIy the same Iies and tactics exposed so powerfully in this film.
THE INHERITORS was not screened in its native country for many years until it was rediscovered at the 2015 ViennaIe Exhibition, where it was praised as a rare and powerful exampIe of Austrian genre cinema with a strong poIiticaI message. The film was selected at the 1984 Cannes Film Festival for the prestigious Directors Fortnight section. ln the same year it aIso won a jury prize at the Montreal World FiIm FestivaI. |
