'Faust – A German Folktale' (1926) is a silent fantasy film directed by F. W. Murnau that draws on older traditions of the legendary tale of Faust, as well as on Goethe's classic 1808 version. With technically elaborate special effects, it is a masterpiece of German Expressionist filmmaking.
Mephisto is a demon who wagers dominion over Earth with an archangel. He bets he can corrupt a righteous man's soul and destroy all that's divine in him. He beguiles an old alchemist by the name of Faust into selling him his soul, leading the despairing man into a downward spiral.
An Atmosphere OS production from New Media Scotland.
