Wolfgang Staudte's powerful World War II drama, made in 1949, stars Paul Esser as a banker who joins the Nazi Party to advance his middling career. But when the Jews in his community are rounded up and taken away, he realizes his terrible mistake and renounces politics altogether--a decision which lands him in a labor camp.
