Man on the brink of the abyss, Wanderer above the Sea of Fog - Yet instead of being overwhelmed and awestruck by the beauty and cruel vastness of nature, our protagonist is overwhelmed, immobilized and slowly rendered mad by the terror and darkness that seems to be invading the world around him. It's a feeling we all have been experiencing to same capacity during the last couple of years.
This was a wild ride, starting out on a writers retreat with musings about writing and creation, then slowly transforming into a dream-like paranoia about surveillance and 18th century German romanticism, and finally ending on very topical issues of media-manipulation and radicalization.
‘Anton' was a regular Mephisto is this tale, and I'd be very curious if he (and his TV show) was based on anyone in particular.
