A Group of Eight global players representing eight nations entangled in an absurdist political gamble with the truth. The dealer spins the roulette and reads cards of facts that define the game and create turmoil on the table. Austria is about to lose, and things turn ugly. The game becomes reality that nobody can escape.

This is a hybrid film, a documentary disguised as tragicomical fiction. The film releases unpublished historical documents on a 100 year old cold case of high level espionage that crushed the international intelligence system by mistrust and lies, leading to a world war. The time is 100 years ago, or today.

As tensions, accusation and blame on the roulette table escalate, the film ends in a stately quadrille of shifting alliances based on a march composed 100 years ago. The treaties of 1919 shifted the powers of Europe, ‘The End of Days is still not due. But Boy do I have some Crackerjack Songs for you’ are the last rhymes with which the film ends tragicomically.

‘Clash of Giants’ is a film, and the publication of some controversial historical data. A book of the film stills published by Verlag für Moderne Kunst in 2020 will reference in detail these historical documents for release to the scientific community and the general public.
