Underground plot

"The World's Secret Battlefront!"

Kurt Franken is an easily influenced young European. He is very impressed with the aims and results of National Socialism. Kurt's brother Eric is just the opposite and is on the side of the Resistance. Eric works as an announcer at an underground radio station of this Resistance. Kurt is initially very scornful of Eric's activities, but soon learns that Adolf Hitler is not the saint he believed in, especially after some of his closest friends are liquidated by the Gestapo. Kurt therefore joins his brother, but soon finds himself in mortal danger.

Despite the naivety that this film radiates, there is an entertaining story in the film, the story about a family in which one brother is a Nazi and the other a resistance fighter is a good basis, the plot is otherwise quite simple worked out and in real life something like this would have been a lot more complicated, but if we put that aside for the sake of convenience, it still remains an exciting story at its core.

about .

It is also striking that not a word is said about the persecution of the Jews

In reality, there was probably no resistance in the form of an illegal radio station

of this size, small printers distributing pamphlets was dangerous enough.

Clearly a B movie, but still exciting.
