Germany, 1942. The Hitler regime is at the peak of its political and military power. Seventeen-year-old Friedrich Weimer, from the Berlin working-class district of Wedding, is a gifted boxer. Thanks to his talent, he receives an offer to study at the "Napola", the elitist National-Political School at Allenstein, which trains future leaders of the German Reich. Friedrich sees this as the chance of a lifetime to free himself from the restrictions of his class and enrols in the school, located in an old castle, against the will of his parents. There, in a disconcerting world dominated by harsh Nazi discipline, he experiences both fierce rivalry and unexpected camaraderie – until a barbarous raid against escaped prisoners of war and his growing friendship with Albrecht Stein, the quiet, sensitive son of a high-ranking Nazi official, force him to make an important decision, one that will also mark the end of his youth. https://www.filmportal.de/en/movie/napola_ee07ac822963bc4ae03053d50b3715a6)
