In the German countryside during the waning weeks of WWII, army deserter Willi Herold (Max Hubacher) was just looking for warm clothing when he came upon an abandoned staff car containing a captain’s uniform and orders. Assuming the officer’s identity, he found everyone he encountered unquestioningly buying in...including those at the prison camp where he ordered fellow soldiers executed for cowardice. Fact-based, often darkly comic tale co-stars Milan Peschel. 118 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: German; Subtitles: English. In German with English subtitles.
