Die Familie eines Nazitäters, 60 Jahre nach Kriegsende. Längst ist die Wahrheit über die Vergangenheit des Vaters aktenkundig, aber unter seinen Verwandten wird sie beschönigt, geleugnet und verdrängt - mit all der Leidenschaft, zu der nur Familienbande fähig sind. (TMDB)

What would your family reminiscences about dad sound like if he had been an early supporter of Hitler’s, a leader of the notorious SA and the Third Reich’s minister in charge of Slovakia, including its Final Solution? Executed as a war criminal in 1947, Hanns Ludin left behind a grieving widow and six young children, the youngest of whom became a filmmaker. It's a fascinating, maddening, sometimes even humorous look at what the director calls "a typical German story." (Film Forum) (TMDB)
