Speak Up! It's So Dark
1993 · Movie · 83 min. · Sweden
A chance meeting leads to unlikely encounters between a Jewish psychiatrist and a young neo-Nazi. After a tussle with some fellow skinheads, Sören boards a train, and is approached by Jacob, who finds himself fascinated by the young man. The psychiatrist asks the young man to come to his office, and a series of meetings ensue. Sören, whose life consists of working out in his room, listening to heavy metal, and participating in violent attacks with his skinhead gang, thinks he is preparing himself for racial warfare. Jacob's perspective couldn't be more different, as his father and sister were killed at Auschwitz after he and his mother escaped from the Nazis. Much of the film consists of their tense conversations.
