“Their teacher became their leader. His students became his soldiers.”
DramaThriller
A school teacher discusses types of government with his class. His students find it too boring to repeatedly go over national socialism and believe that dictatorship cannot be established in modern Germany. He starts an experiment to show how easily the masses can become manipulated.
VIBE
This is a chilling, propulsive descent into the mechanics of groupthink and authoritarianism. It feels like a stark, unsettling social experiment unfolding before your eyes, leaving you to ponder the fragility of individual will against collective momentum. A truly thought-provoking and dramatic experience.
