Good costume shot of Fritz, the "hollowed man"
himself. PRELUDE: Hebraic themes give way to dissonance as humanity is crushed under the Nazi heel. |
|
 |
 |
Once captured, Fritz is caged in the chicken coop. Albert restrains David from shooting Fritz early on. |
 |
As the sun sets, Karla, the mother, reflects on happier
times. LULLABY: A harp rendition of ancient Hebrew melody. |
|
 |
 |
Helena, the intellectual daughter, comforts the teenaged Ninka. David at rear listens to Ninka's tale of passion - notice she wears the bloodstained coat of a German officer as a "trophy". |
 |
Helena, driven to a fit of madness, nearly shoots Fritz
with his own pistol. ACT-II PRELUDE |
|
 |
 |
The mother in a pensive moment- a good shot of the set. Albert allows Fritz to dress before leading him out to his fate. |
 |
A Family Portrait. POSTLUDE: As they clink glasses in a toast to the future, a carillon heralds a triumphal theme. |
