U-Boat
Nice piece of propaganda: Staged, edited, scripted according to a dramatic structure. It starts with the sight of the Nazi flag and the commander looking at a romanticized sea, conquered by human intelligence and will. Soldiers sleep while the rest of the crew takes care of technology, cleaning the equipment and putting the torpedoes in the launching tubes under the centralized gaze of the commander; as an harmonious and organized orchestration of musical instruments.
But not everything is about the well of machinery and when somebody in duty is hurt expressions of humanity are brought about by taking care of him. Music is played to remind us of the spiritual connection with the people and the historical past and path. Here in the u-boat we are a National Socialist family. We cook and eat our delicious food at the rhythm of the waves that our house ride and we go on to the deck wearing our rain coats to pierce the horizon for the sight of commercial fleets to sink.
We have found one and quickly the alarm sounds off. The sleeping, resting elements jump down the bunker beds; the music stops, the chess game is in-concluded. Everything in the U-house has become a machinery of destruction; we sink and the enemy is looked at from the periscope. A torpedo is launched, hitting the allied ship few minutes later. We go back to the surface, the engine working at full speed. Its is time to hit another boat which although is the same looks different in this movie of us Germans proud of our racist scum looking at our future from the tower of our u-national socialism.
