in Worms in the early 1920s. Peter Bender, former flying lieutenant in the German Army, made a name for himself as the founder of a new religious community and with the proclamation of the so-called hollow world theory: humanity, according to this theory, does not come to life, but in a sphere, outside of which nothing exists. Bender's community remains small, but he is sentenced to several months in prison for spreading seditious and blasphemous pamphlets. When word spread that his wife was Jewish after the National Socialists came to power, even his closest followers turned away from him. The Benders became impoverished and the repression against his wife soon became unbearable until the family was arrested and deported in 1942. Only the son survives the concentration camp.
