Triumph of the Spirit is a 1989 American film directed by Robert M. Young and starring
Willem Dafoe and Edward James Olmos. The majority of the film is set in the death camp at
Auschwitz during the Holocaust and details how the Jewish boxer Salamo Arouch was forced to
fight other internees to the death for the SS guards' entertainment. Prior to Triumph of the Spirit,
no major feature film had ever been shot on location at Auschwitz.
Father Joseph Mohr, a newly appointed priest in the town of Oberndorf (near Salzburg), meets
the beautiful prostitute Magdalene. He struggles to change her situation and make a new
life for her, and while doing so, they fall in love. Mohr struggles with his feelings for her, versus
his commitment to God. Meanwhile, the Prior, Mohr's superior, whose corrupt dealings with the
Baron von Seidl are threatened by Mohr's integrity and honesty, works (unsuccessfully) to
falsely accuse Mohr of sexual misconduct with Magdalene, and thereby remove him from office.
Meanwhile, Mohr and local schoolteacher Franz Gruber compose the hymn "Silent Night".
