This riveting 2008 German film features a terrific cast headed by the always wonderful Bruno Ganz and a crackling script.

The action-drama opens with the idyllic image of children playing on a beach, but we learn they will grow up to be the Baader Meinhof Gang, a West German terrorist group in the 1970s. They were the children of Nazis who fought against "the new face of fascism" –-- American imperialism supported by the German establishment.
