Hands play the main role in this found-footage film. They work and rest, gesticulate, tease, stretch out fanatically in a salute. Adolf Hitler rubs his helplessly. The film refers to Michail Romm’s ‘Ordinary Fascism’, but gives the German newsreel material a psychological twist. Hitler and Stalin’s years of existence frame the images of destructive gestures and create an archival order.
