Rise of Evil

A man in a military uniform stands on a balcony overlooking a vast assembly hall, raising his arm in a salute. The scene cuts to a close-up of the man's face, then to a crowd of men, women, and children in the audience, all performing the same salute in unison. The sequence ends with a wide shot of the hall, showing the crowd and the man on the balcony, with a large statue of a figure with outstretched arms visible at the far end of the hall.
