LA TUA VALUTAZIONE

Based on an arresting true story, The Captain follows an enigmatic German army deserter, Willi Herold (Max Hubacher), after he stumbles across an abandoned Nazi captains uniform in the final weeks of World War II. Newly emboldened by the allure of a suit he stole only to stay warm, Herold discovers that many Germans will follow the leader, whomever that happens to be. A parade of fresh atrocities follows in the self-declared captains wake, serving as a reminder of the consequences of social conformity and untrammeled political power. Simultaneously a historical docudrama and sociological examination with undertones of ghoulish absurdity,The Captain presents fascism as a system to be gamed by those most casuistic and unscrupulous.

If you want to test man's character, give him power

An interesting movie for 2 main reasons: 1) it shows the fragilities of the Nazi Germany towards the end of the war, with many German soldiers deserting the army (something nobody talks about) and 2) it shows the depths of the human ego and the decadence of character when power is given arbitrarily

Some German soldiers have a skull painted on their helmet. This specific type of skull decal was used by a Finnish army unit (1st battalion, infantry regiment 46) in the continuation war 1941-1944. A famous colorized photo of three Finnish soldiers in a trench wearing this sort helmet decal of is often incorrectly associated with Germans or the SS.
