Hello guys,
I've seen trailers of this interesting german movie called Napola - Elite für den Führer, at the local cinema here in Singapore.
Wierdest thing is that it was produced in 2004, YET doesnt seem like any of our forum members have posted info about it..
So heres the official website http://www.napola-special.film.de
And introduction about the movie quoted from http://www.german-cinema.de
""Germany, 1942. The Hitler regime is at the peak of its political and military power. Seventeen-year-old Friedrich Weimer, from the Berlin working-class district of Wedding, is a gifted boxer. Thanks to his talent, he receives an offer to study at an elite National-Political School, the NAPOLA of Allenstein, which trains the future leaders of the German Reich. Friedrich sees this as the chance of a lifetime to free himself from the restrictions of his class and enrolls in the school, which is located in an old castle, against the will of his parents. There, in a disconcerting world dominated by harsh Nazi discipline, he experiences both fierce rivalry and unexpected camaraderie - until a barbarous raid against escaped prisoners of war and his growing friendship with the quiet and sensitive Albrecht Stein, the son of a high-ranking official, force him to make an important decision, one that will also mark the end of his youth.""
