Vintage poster "The faithful" 1953
- Diderich Hessling is afraid of everything and everyone. But as he grows older, he realizes that he must offer his services to the strong if he wants to rule power on his own. His life motto becomes: bow to those above and step on those below. In this way, he always succeeds - as a student in a dueling student fraternity and as a businessman in a paper mill. He tricked the obese administrative president of the region, Von Vulkov, and won his favor. He slanders his financial rivals and conspires with the Social Democrats in the city council. During his honeymoon with his wealthy wife Guste, he finally finds a chance to do his beloved Kaiser a favor. And when the Kaiser's monument was unveiled in the city where Diderich lives and works, he conveys the congratulatory address. He stands on the podium in the pouring rain and greets his Kaiser. The crowd is scattered. Everything is in ruins ...The film is based on the 1918 novel by Heinrich Mann.Based on a novel by Heinrich MannDirector:W. SchäutdeStarring: W. Peters, P. Esther, R.
