Junge Adler (Original Title)

The action takes place during the World War II era and depicts the story of a wealthy, irresponsible young man, Theo, who is sent by his father (the head of an aircraft factory) to the factory's apprentice school where he eventually bonds with fellow students and teachers while learning to contribute to the war effort by building airplanes.

A very good educational movie for teenagers. It resembles Soviet films - the same glorification of labor and the communal and criticism of individualism. The national -socialist goal of classless society is indirectly touched upon - everyone is equal and one family, regardless of social status. Theo was not promoted to the next year due to poor academic performance despite his father's clout and status. One of the apprentices plays a violin – resembles a character usually reserved in the soviet movies for a Jewish boy. He even looks a bit like a Jew.
