*** This review may contain spoilers ***
A difficult film, with a kind of repugnant fascist security policeman as a "heroe", if a good film needs to open new realities in your mind this is one of the greatest even if it is hard to understand people like Ferdinand you can literally see his point of view in life and security, at the end he becomes a terrorist to prove that security measures for combat against terrorist are inefficient(very actual)is amazing that this film from 1976 deal with so modern facts, it's great that somebody like Kluge takes the point of view from the other side and made an extraordinary low key film. I truly recommend this film without expectations of any kind and open to go inside the shoes of a not your favorite character.
