Contexte et analyse
“Thanksgiving Day 1936. Handing over the harvest gifts on the judgment place” - the writing at the beginning of the film calls up the Christian tradition of Thanksgiving. But the train of horse-drawn carriages parading along Friedrichstrasse in Lahr appears in the next picture between two uniformed men: Nazi men give the view of the event - and the amateur filmmaker repeats this view, filming the event from the perspective of those who took possession of the harvest festival for the National Socialist Party.
Already in 1934, Adolf Hitler had decreed that the first Sunday after the day of Michaelis end of September is a public holiday - Thanksgiving Day. The Nazi regime took part in Thanksgiving to highlight the importance of the peasantry for the empire. The rural way of life formed the basis of the blood and soil ideology, and the Reich harvest festival on the Bückeberg near Hameln was - alongside the Nazi Party rally and the celebration on May 1st - one of the central major events for staging the Nazi ideology.
The decorated single-horse carriages open, but the Christian ritual, in which the believers thank God for the gifts of the harvest, is occupied by the self-portrayal of a party that visually transforms public space into a space of rule. The horse-drawn carriages go with the traditional peasant society, but Thanksgiving Sunday has become the stage for a party that profaned the Christian rite for its own purposes.
The camera follows this staging in particular with pans, traces with eye movements what is represented in the medium of a festival that is about to lose its original meaning. Repeatedly a swing ends on the party men in uniform - one of them raises his arm to greet Hitler as he drifts past. The bystanders glide past, stand in front or as a gathering in the background, they are extras in a political performance or they - as representatives of the harvest celebration - have their own small role in it. The celebration itself is the medium that holds the different and the incompatible together in its performance - and lets the old symbols and ritual acts merge into a new, deceptive resonance room. A young man is holding a microphone. The new cult is that of the racial myth, which displaces the Christian rite - and thus the churches - from public life.
Once again it is a pan that hastily passes over a small group of party people - a manager gives a short speech that is recorded with a microphone. Young women from the Federation of German Girls come into view, standing in strict order with flags, followed by a group of SS men in black uniform. The judgment place in Lahr has become a scene of the National Socialists - the long table with the white tablecloth, the table for the harvest gifts, flies past inconspicuously.
