Abstract: In this series, Vienna Blood,
PBS explores the slow and violent rise of ultranationalist German movements in
Austria before the First World War, where and when Adolf Hitler was born and
raised. The series is rather harsh. It is fairly graphic, but it is worth a
small trip in time. The main characters are a Jewish psychiatrist and a Slovak
detective. They must solve various crimes, and they discover, little by little,
an underground movement working in the darkness to bring about a war because
they are mainly connected with the steel industry, which depends a lot on war
and war equipment. The psychiatrist is Freudian, and as such, is trying to find
out the mostly or often unconscious motivations of the people he is
investigating. We are dealing with antisemitism, anti-Freudianism, and
ultra-nationalist Germanic movements. The Slavic option is strong with Russia
and Serbia competing in bringing up the war by defending the unity of all
Slavic people, under Moscow or Belgrade.
