Wozzeck, opera's darkest antihero tale (Alban Berg)

Before there was Breaking Bad and Joker, there was Wozzeck: an intense and dark opera by Alban Berg about the downfall of a man, who through mistreatment, humilliation and poverty looses his mind and destroys what he loves most. As you can tell, this video is quite intense, but there are many important messages we can take away from it.
