a different war

From the moment Germany launched its attack on the Soviet Union, the shadow of war enveloped the entire European continent.In this cruel war, the fate of countless people was ruthlessly rewritten, including five young people with very different personalities.They originally had different outlooks on life and ideals, but under the impact of the war, their personalities and beliefs have undergone tremendous changes.

The story of the Winter brothers epitomizes the countless tragedies of this war.The elder brother was a decorated soldier whose courage and honor were recognized on the battlefield.But as the war continued, he witnessed the indiscriminate shooting of Jews by the German army, and this cruel reality gradually shattered his faith.After a failed battle, he chose to leave the army and hid in an abandoned farmhouse, living an isolated life.And his younger brother, who was originally a young man who loved literature and opposed the war, became callous under the devastation of the war.Although there is still a trace of sympathy in his heart, his behavior becomes more and more cruel, and he even starts killing people.

Greta's story shows love and sacrifice in war.In order to save her Jewish boyfriend Victor, she did not hesitate to maintain a lover's relationship with a senior SS officer, and even used this relationship to obtain an exit permit for Victor.Although her choice makes her morally controversial, it also reflects her firmness and courage in the face of love.

Charlotte's changes are even more touching.She was a young man full of ideals and enthusiasm, and her loyalty to her country led her to actively participate in various activities in the early days of the war.However, it was this “loyalty” that drove her to report a Jewish woman working in a field hospital.Unexpectedly, the Jew later became a political commissar of the Soviet Red Army and extended a helping hand to Charlotte when Germany was defeated, allowing her to survive and return to Berlin.
