The Star of Africa

Germany, during the Second World War. Friends Robert and Jochen are sent off to Africa as fighter pilots. Jochen, above all, is on his way to becoming a real folk hero, thanks to his numerous kills of enemy planes and his fearless maneuvers. While back home on leave, this pilot, much honored by Hitler, falls in love with the student Brigitte … and it isn’t long before Jochen is asking himself what the whole point of the War is about.
