Before us is an energetic display of acting and auteurship mastery, voluminous and brimming with meaning. Using the example of the tragedy of society and man after a world war, it speaks about our times, times facing a new, imminent disaster. (…) The protagonist is Eugen Hinkemann – “a man without a penis who sees far better than others”. Thanks to this interpretation, he becomes a symbol of today’s generation accused of lacking ideals and eating sour grapes of their fathers, a generation which does not see itself as a creator of a new era, but as a fugitive from the present one. Thus the story of the protagonist … becomes a sad saga of the spectacular entertainment typical of modern times, where work has been stripped of its dignity and interpersonal relationships devoid of warmth and solidarity.
