Movie idea- Weimar

Nietzsche lived in Weimar, where Elisabeth cared for him and allowed people, including Rudolf Steiner (who in 1895 had written one of the first books praising Nietzsche)[85][page needed] to visit her uncommunicative brother. Elisabeth at one point went so far as to employ Steiner as a tutor to help her to understand her brother's philosophy. Steiner abandoned the attempt after only a few months, declaring that it was impossible to teach her anything about philosophy.[86]

Movie idea, a film about Weimar, go though history and tell individual stories that happened in this famous place.
Between each section jumping through time would be a word play in German such as Train (Rudoph Steiner trained Elisabeth in her brother's philosophy) and Train (Adolf Eichmann arranged for the Jews to board the train).
The last shot in the Steiner section would be him training her, the word "Train" flashes, then we see a train moving down the tracks.

Mary's Room

The knowledge argument (also known as Mary's room or Mary the super-scientist) is a philosophical thought experiment proposed by Frank Jackson in his article "Epiphenomenal Qualia" (1982) and extended in "What Mary Didn't Know" (1986). The argument is intended to motivate what is often called the "Knowledge Argument" against physicalism — the view that the universe, including all that is mental, is entirely physical. The debate that emerged following its publication became the subject of an edited volume — There's Something About Mary (2004) — which includes replies from such philosophers as Daniel DennettDavid Lewis, and Paul Churchland.
