Another film with a Nazi and his penis at the center of narrative.
Un film profondément désagréable, aussi bien dans sa structure que dans les thèmes abordés, nous mettant constamment face à l’incompréhensible, et là réside tout son génie.Serebrennikov dresse le portrait pitoyable d’un monstre humain, entre déni, paranoïa constante et peur de la fin, Mengele est montré tel qu’il est, pathétique et abject.Le summum de l’horreur est atteint lors d’une interlude en couleur, à la fois brillante et insoutenable, donnant l’impression de plonger dans le doux souvenir du Mal en personne.Absolument dingue.
THE DISAPPEARANCE OF JOSEF MENGELE is a bleak character study of a black-hearted, unrepentant Nazi hiding in Latin America after World War II. Gorgeously shot in black and white and features an incredible transformative & chilling performance from August Diehl. A grim, two-hour examination of pure hated where every excuse is provided by its subject as to why he was nicknamed the “Angel of Death” but never justifying why his story warranted a film this lacking in suspense or dramatic conflict. Should’ve been told in a linear manner so we could feel the weight of his miserable experience better. Still, it makes for an interesting companion piece to watch after “The Zone Of Interest” highlighting how evil is still able to survive as the world changes and time moves on.
Het volgt de voortvluchtige nazi-arts na de Tweede Wereldoorlog terwijl hij zich onder verschillende aliassen in Zuid-Amerika schuilhoudt om vervolging te ontlopen.
Het werd geregisseerd door Kirill Serebrennikov in 2025, bekend om zijn opvallende historische en biografische drama's.
De film ging in première in competitie op het Filmfestival van Cannes 2025.
