Despair - Eine Reise ins Licht (1978)
Berlin, 1930er Jahre, während des Aufstiegs des Nationalsozialismus. Hermann Hermann, ein russischer Emigrant und Schokoladenfabrikant, der mit der kapriziösen Lydia verheiratet ist, verliert täglich die Beherrschung im Umgang mit seinen Arbeitern und anderen Geschäftsleuten; bis er Felix trifft, einen Landstreicher, der körperlich mit ihm identisch zu sein scheint; eine beunruhigende Tatsache, die Hermann Hermann dazu veranlasst, einen besonderen Weg aus einer Scheinwelt zu planen, die er eigentlich hasst.
