简介：A film of deep sadness and despair, and the director’s first film in black and white, The Last Hole is the mordant tale of a man haunted by the historic guilt of Germany who desperately tries to find redemption. Achternbusch portrays “der Nil” (The Nile), a flycatcher, beer drinker, and private detective from the Bavarian forest. “I am called ‘der Nil’ because I wander through the desert, wander through the desert and evaporate,” says the man who drinks several liters of beer a day in an attempt to forget the murder of six million Jews by the nation to which he belongs. The only thing that drives him forward is the search for the love of his life, who is always—and can only be—called Susan. —http://hcl.harvard.edu
