Product Description The Inheritors - A chilling and timely look into the twisted world of the extreme right. On his way home from school, 16 year old Thomas helps Charly, an unemployed teenager, escape from the police. Despite their differing backgrounds the boys become good friends and Charly persuades Thomas to join a neo-Nazi youth group. Intrigued and confused by his new friends, Thomas, who is experiencing trouble at home and school, is drawn deeper into a web of sex and violence that leads to a tragic end. In 1979, Austrian film director Walter Bannert was among a group of Vienna cafe patrons beaten up by a gang of young neo-Nazis who wrecked the place. Researching the burgeoning movement in West Germany and Austria for 3 years, Bannert infiltrated their private meetings by convincing party leaders that he wanted to make an objective documentary. His film, THE INHERITORS is the result, a disturbing and timely fictional drama based entirely on real characters, events and conversations that Bannert came across in the neo-Nazi camps. The film was highly controversial on its original release and theatres screening it were threatened with violent action by neo-Nazi sympathizers. Although it is now over thirty years old, the film remains incredibly relevant as we witness, across the world, the rebirth of right-wing extremism using exactly the same lies and tactics exposed so powerfully in this film. THE INHERITORS was not screened in its native country for many years until it was rediscovered at the 2015 Viennale Exhibition, where it was praised as a rare and powerful example of Austrian genre cinema with a strong political message. The film was selected at the 1984 Cannes Film Festival for the prestigious Directors Fortnight section. In the same year it also won a jury prize at the Montreal World Film Festival. SPECIAL FEATURES: Brand new 2k scan from film negative. Exclusive 12 page booklet with essays by Michael Gingold and film maker Paul Poet. Original theatrical trailer. English/German audio choice. Newly created subtitles. Review Eerily accurate still, even though the film is over 30 years old… very much worth seeing. --Kalafudra.com Extraordinarily strong and perceptive. --The New York Post A film of rage.

Description

An aspiring director risks his relationship and savings on a shady producer's deal. After a devastating betrayal, he must find a way to start over. Johnny Penn (Walter Cox) is a man driven by a lifelong obsession to become a film director. His opportunity arrives via Leon Spickle (Brian Gromoff), a charismatic but low-budget producer who claims to have secured a deal with a major production company. Despite warnings from his girlfriend, Veronica (Liese McDonald), and his friend Rick (Lee Barringer) about Leon's integrity and rumored history as a drug dealer, Johnny is blinded by his own ambition. When Leon claims the financiers require immediate "seed money" to start shooting, Johnny faces a moral crossroads. Driven by the fear of losing his only shot, he ignores the advice of his childhood friend, Father Joe (Joe Barile), and secretly withdraws $20,000 from the savings account he shares with Veronica. He convinces himself the ends justify the means and begins filming his screenplay, "Fatal Suspicions"--a dark tale about a childhood game of war that turns into a real-life cycle of revenge. The deception shatters when Veronica discovers the empty bank account and confronts Johnny on set. The tragedy deepens when Johnny calls the production company and realizes Leon never had a deal; the producer has fled the city with their life savings. Broken and alone, Johnny spends months in a spiral of guilt and alcoholism. His path to redemption begins when Leon's introverted son, Cy (Roman Danylo), approaches him with saved money and a desire to clear his conscience by helping Johnny finish the film. Johnny eventually reconciles with Veronica and completes the movie, which becomes a major success. In a final twist, Johnny witnesses a disgraced Leon being shot by thugs over past debts; though he saves Leon's life, he finally recognizes that their paths must remain separate, having learned the true cost of blind ambition.
