About the Film
An irresistibly spirited dark comedy about a small town German schoolgirl who absolutely refuses to stop challenging authority. Researching a paper about her town's history during the Third Reich, she stumbles across the fact that resistance to the Nazis was largely a myth. But nothing can stop her, not even when her family is threatened, her house is nearly bombed, and the town library tries to keep her out of its most sensitive files. Full of gallows humor, some parts are realistic, others straight slapstick, while others are stylized in a manner that invites the audience to participate. 1991 Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Film. Warning: mild nudity and language.
Direct(or) Dialogue With Students
Academy Award nominated director Michael Verhoeven will discuss his courageous cinematic efforts to applaud civic justice, honesty and taking a stand with students only.
