Can a uniform awaken a desire for power in a man? The Captain tells the story of a Nazi deserter named Herold, who stumbles upon a captain’s uniform during the last days of the World War II, and how this find changes his personality and life. Inspired by real people and events, the film observes what a man crushed under a military regime can do when he gains the reins of power, and paints the portrait of darkness that resides deep in us all. With its striking black & white visuals that sear the mind, The Captain serenely shows the cold and savage face of war and lust for power.

This film was a Meetings on the Bridge participant.
