Macbeth Oper von Rosa von Praunheim

Lady Macbeth, driven by ambition, urges her husband, Macbeth, to murder King Duncan. Macbeth becomes king but descends into madness. A Scottish nobleman, in a duel, ultimately kills Macbeth. The film, set 900 years later in Berlin, depicts this act with a blurred sequence.
