Synopsis
The film shows how perfidious the Nazis triggered anti-Semitism with the awarded film “Jew Süß” by misusing the historic, iconic figure Joseph Süßkind Oppenheimer, who was murdered by justice in the 18th century. Director Ina Knobloch follows the real biography of Oppenheimer and compares it with sequences of the Nazi-Film “Jew Süß” and shows how the Nazis used “Fake News” to create an evil figure and a degrading picture of Jewish life. But she also shows the evolution of anti-Semitism from mediaeval times till today, how Christianity created “Fake News” to make Jews responsible for all kinds of disasters and how the same formula works till today.
