This is a small, intense film based on Schoenberg’s opus of the same name with the subtitle “danger, fear, catastrophe”. It deals with emerging fascism and the persecution of Jews, as well as with their historical continuities.
Unfortunately the movie Introduction to Arnold Schoenberg’s Accompaniment to a Cinematic Scene is not yet available on HBO Max.
