Samson and Delilah: The Old Testament story of a man with irrepressible strength - as a silent film, told in a modern way.
Samson and Delilah: The Old Testament story of a man with irrepressible strength - as a silent film, told in a modern way.
Samson is blessed with magical hair that gives him inhuman strength and hypnotically attracts women and men. The cunning femme fatale De seizes his mane and thereby acquires seductive powers herself.
However, De's happiness is also short-lived and her new powers arouse desire. Lilah, too, has her sights set on the magical mane.
"Malte Wirtz gives the Old Testament fairy tale about faith, masculinity and mother complexes a new twist in his variant." (kino-zeit)
"A successful film experiment that transfers an old story and past stylistic devices into our modern world and visibly enjoys it. Actress Taisiya Schumacher is a real discovery!" (spielfilm)
