So, 'Death and the Devil' is a curious piece, really. It dives into the life of Count Eric von Rosen, who, despite his interest in African cultures, had this complicated relationship with colonialism. It’s a documentary, but it feels more like an exploration, almost a personal quest as Nestler seeks out his grandfather's legacy. The pacing is a bit reflective, allowing you to absorb the weight of the themes—identity, legacy, and the contradictions within one man’s life. There are these quiet moments where the atmosphere shifts, and you get a sense of the historical context. While there’s no flashy practical effects, the storytelling here is what stands out; it’s raw and thought-provoking, leaving you with more questions than answers.
