The Heir of the Besmenian Empire (Besmenian: Der Erbe des Besmenischen Reiches) is a 2021 Besmenian biographical historical drama film, starring Franz Waldmitz as (referred these days as controversial) Besmenian Prime Minister Robert Gleitzmann.
The film depicts the life of Robert Gleitzmann beginning with his time as mayor of Laitstadt in the 1960s up to the last years of his life in the late 1990s. Historical events such as the West Besmenian Revolution, the Besmenian reunification and the foundation of the Coalition of Crown Albatross are also covered in the film. The film shows Gleitzmann on the one hand in a positive representation, but also in a negative representation, corresponding to various political acts but also in his private life.
The film's title refers to the satirical term that is popular nowadays, The heir of the Besmenian Empire. The name comes from Martin Beiter during the 1980 election campaign as a criticism for Gleitzmann's government cabinet with the Besmenian Republican Party.
Plot
The film begins with the HIL news broadcast from November 21, 1999, on which the death of Gleitzmann is announced. After the announcement of his death, the news anchor gave a brief glimpse into his political life. After the end of the report, the actual film begins.
