Synopsis

A uniquely creative, permissive period, the Weimar was the age of Enlightenment and Einstein, of Thomas Mann and Bertold Brecht, of the spread of psychoanalysis and neo-Marxism, of atonal music and the Bauhaus, of Paul Klee and the existentialist philosophers, of Max Reinhardt and Marlene Dietrich. But it also witnessed the emergence of another culture that was neither avant-garde nor left wing in inspiration. The Establishment was opposed to the Republic and all it stood for. And Hitler was waiting in the wings.
