Jew Süss – Rise and Fall

The story of the Austrian actor Ferdinand Marian, who played the main role in the notorious film "Jud Süß". It shows an unscrupulous social climber and Yuppie, gaining fame and getting ahead, who does not want to lose his chance – even if he has to sympathise with the devil. But in the end he perishes of overwhelming feelings of guilt.
