| Summary: | Verzio FF submission
David Modell spent several months alongside Mark Collett, member of the British National Party and dedicated candidate for the position of chairman of the party's youth branch. This university student speaks of his sympathies for Nazi Germany and declares that he would prefer to live in the 1930s in Hitler's Reich than in many contemporary cities of the democratic United Kingdom. Although he does not hide his affiliation to extremist ideologies, he voices them more openly only when he believes the camera is not recording. As Mark gradually wins political support and public attention, a shocking example of political and media machination unfolds. First and foremost, however, the film paints a chilling portrait of a man who demonstrates that dangerous ideas have not lost their ability to impress. The camera follows Mark to the core of his contradictory self. |
