Hamlet: This Is Your Family

About This Movie

So, this one dives into the wild world of Christoph Schlingensief’s Nazi-'Hamlet' project, right? It’s a documentary, but it feels more like a raw, unfiltered experience. Kern plays with irony—like, a lot—bringing out the absurdity of letting ex-neo-Nazis take center stage. The atmosphere is thick with tension and a sense of unease, which is pretty intense. It’s not just a film about a play; it’s a commentary on society and provocation, especially in a place like Switzerland, which tries to maintain this image of neutrality. The pacing can be jagged, reflecting the chaotic nature of the subject matter. Definitely distinctive, it raises more questions than it answers about art and politics.
