Storia
A young engineer is sent to survey an economically under-developed region for a projected nuclear power station. The local population strongly opposes his presence, leading him to uncover strange parapsychological occurrences influenced by an elderly man who dominates not only the villagers but also Walpurga, a young woman with whom the engineer falls in love. As the engineer delves deeper into the situation, he realizes that the villagers' fears are not merely about being displaced from their land, but also about the supernatural forces at play.
Riassunto
Tod im November (Death in November) is an Austrian drama-horror film directed by Helmut Pfandler and released in 1978. The story serves as an allegory for societal fears surrounding nuclear power plants and industrialization's impact on traditional communities. Set against the backdrop of a small, seemingly isolated village in Austria, the film explores themes of resistance to change, supernatural forces exerting control over people, and the struggle between love and duty when faced with extraordinary circumstances.
