A World War II film from Germany. The film is based on a true story, depicting how a nineteen-year-old ordinary soldier, Willy Hroth, became the so-called "Emsland Executioner" during the last two weeks of World War II. He impersonated an officer by donning a found captain's uniform, gathering scattered soldiers to form a special task force, and rampaging across the collapsing Nazi Empire, seizing the power of arrest and life and death, inspired by the Führer. The film won the Best Cinematography Award at last year's San Sebastián International Film Festival.
