(4) YA On the run during the waning days of World War II, German teenager Dieter and his younger sister encounter a wounded Canadian soldier. As Dieter tells Joe his story, a series of flashbacks depict his transformation from an average middle-class boy to a young soldier with the SS. Though some of the characterizations are strong, the dialogue is often awkwardly contrived to reveal factual information about the war.
