I think the message is "Nazi spirit is alive and well." This is an obscenity.
Serves me right for not checking the review again.

A better movie than the American version made a few years later. To be truthful I hated the plot but I did watch it because of Stefan Clapczynski who did his character role quite well in spite of the circumstances.
