Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
A young boy and his classmates cause a stir when they reject their parents' bellicose and aggressively intolerant philosophies. He finally leaves home when he is kicked out for refusing to fight in what he feels is his father's war. This feature seems to be more reflective of attitudes in 1969 than what really existed in Germany before World War I.
