I guess since I had never quite seen anything like this before, Concerto For the Right Hand (Eng. translation), has stuck with me for a long time and inspired me to go back and check out older silent films as they were the obvious inspiration for this film. The film's darkly comic world also brings to mind films of Val Lewton as well as the stories of Poe. The acting here is not always first rate and the budget was obviously strained, but the twisted, at times even fantastic storyline kept my mind busy throughout, and to this day it remains an unforgettable experience. I saw it at the Berlin Int. Film Festival and have heard from friends around the world that it has been shown at various Goethe Institutes. A German film that needs no translation.
