Black Sun
A historical analysis of how groups such as the Nazi’s may use language, symbols, and religious connotation in order to come to power. It raises questions that deserve in depth analysis and consideration. Questions include: Where do legends expand our thinking and where do they bury it? When does spiritual pursuit suddenly turn into fanaticism and violence? Last, have we as a society learned from our past, and if so have forgotten the lessons of the 20th Century? Are we now embarking on a new level only to learn the same old lessons about humanity again? In addressing these questions we are taken into the back drop of the history of Germany beginning in the late 1800’s through the late 20th Century at the eve of the 21st. “A society that does not take archetypes, myths, and symbols seriously will possibly be jumped by them from behind.”

Sorry, this movie sucks
Good concept, poorly executed.
It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
It's a critically sinister documentary and very comprehensive as such of all the figures that contributed to making the cult of nazism into what it was. Many questions are answered, and many other questions are posed. In the beginning the film is fairly instructive and arouses only positive interest in all those speculators in ancient occultism, beginning with Helena Blavatsky and her "discovery" of Atlantis as the home of the Hyperboreans or Aryans. Many others follow in her footsteps developing the myth and cult of nazism, gradually growing more definite as mythomaniacs. When it comes to Hitler the film turns more critical with a more and more definite detachment and objectivity to the gigantic shipwreck of Germany, leading a whole people astray to disaster by sheer delusion.Many are fooled by the first impression of this film to believe it's a kind of modern Nazi propaganda, while it's actually the opposite. After the film you feel a bitter aftertaste and are left wondering how an entire people could be fooled by such fancies. The greatest question and problem is that very phenomenon: how the German masses could be so enthused by such a craze. It will probably remain unexplainable forever.The film is expertly done, however. It stays consistently restrained and detached in relation to its subject and is like an admirable and difficult surgical operation of an ideological cancer. The hope is that it will not return.
