In the last moments of World War II, a young German soldier fighting for survival finds a Nazi captain's uniform. Impersonating an officer, the man quickly takes on the monstrous identity of the perpetrators he's escaping from.
Dark.
"It's a profoundly disturbing film, full of striking images."
—Ed Potton, The Times (UK)
