The wave

Germans have tried to get rid of that cruel concept they are characterized for, and although all the people that lived the horror of hitler is long gone, new generations are still trying to forget....and they bet on it, they really believe that they are different now, that they can blend with the rest of the world.

I saw this movie called the Wave, wich was quite successful in German cinemas, and after 10 weeks million of people have watched it.

The plot is about a high-school that has a week project and Wenger (the teacher) discusses autocracy with his class. His students, third generation after the Second World War,do not believe that a dictatorship could be established in modern Germany, so Wenger starts an experiment to demonstrate how easily the masses can be manipulated.....
