ReviewsNew York Times - Set in Berlin in 1942, Dennis Gansel's intensely beautiful film brings us inside Hitler's network of elite schools to groom young Germans for positions of power, Los Angeles Times - A work of exemplary craftsmanship... Ranks high among the year's films
Additional InformationNAPOLA, a moving portrayal of a young boy's struggle to remain true to himself against heavy odds, unfolds in 1942 in an elite school that trains the finest German youth to be Nazi leaders. Friedrich is a champion boxer who has been chosen to attend; he defies his anti-Nazi father in order to do so. At the school he is subjected to brutal training methods of often dubious morality, and his friendship with fellow student Albrecht grows as they face them together. Albrecht is a highly emotional writer whose governor father disapproves of his supposed softness even as he revels in Friedrich's successes; Friedrich himself is swayed by his friend's sensitivity. When a supposed war game turns deadly, Albrecht is unable to cope with his disillusion and guilt, and Friedrich is forced to decide where his loyalty lies.
