Remarks and general Information in German: „Der deutlich an D.W. Griffiths INTOLERANCE (1916) orientierte Film prangert in vier Episoden die Intoleranz der Menschen durch die Versuchungen Satans an, der in immer neuen Verkleidungen auftritt (Der Verrat Judas’ an Jesus / Spanische Inquisition / Französische Revolution /Die rote Garde). Die Episoden sind unterschiedlich gestaltet, Dreyer experimentiert mit verschiedenen Stilmitteln. Zum ersten Mal benutzt Dreyer bewußt die Landschaft, um Atmosphäre visuell auszudrücken.
