Trailer for film The Wave by Dennis Gansel. THE WAVE is based on a real event from a Californian high school in 1967 and transposed to Germany today. A cautionary tale about the roots of fascism. The film opens in a rush of energy with charismatic teacher Rainer Wegner beginning a week long class on autocracy. To indifferent students, its a hard sell, but Wegner gets an idea for an experiment: as their leader he asks the students to call him Mr Wegner, chooses the motto strength through discipline, creates a logo, decides that everyone wears a white shirt, and names the group, The Wave adding a secret sign reminiscent of a Nazi salute. Much to their surprise the students find that they like the power of unity and soon this new found discipline spills over to other school activities and newcomers join the group. The Wave gives the kids something to believe in for a change, until they go too far and The Wave spins out of control.

Dominatus. I was in Germany when the movie came out. Our history teacher took us to see it and had many lectures on the subject. The Germans try very hard to understand exactly how this sort of thing happened, so that it will never happen again.
Hey any Germans out there? What was the reaction to this movie in Germany? Did the young people like it? Do people really think that a community spirit is needed among the youth? Like the Hitlerjugend.
