A movie that would be welcome on DVD if it isn't out already.The movie captures the harsh, anti-humanity of the Nazi movement, the illogic of their hatred, and the beastliness of their thug-like behaviour to intimidate opposition.

Two school girls, one Jewish and one from a family who are strong Nazi supporters are close friends in Vienna in 1938. Their relationship holds fast even as the persecution of Jews grows.

This movie is based on the novel 'The Devil in Vienna' by Doris Orgel. The book was written for young adults, and in diary format as told by Inge a young Jewish girl of 13 living in Vienna just before the Nazi takeover of Austria.
