Bernhard Wicki's astonishing The Bridge was the first major antiwar film to come out of Germany after World War II. Set near the end of the conflict, it follows a group of teenage boys in a small town as they contend with everyday matters like school, girls, and parents, before enlisting as soldiers and being forced to defend their home turf in a confused, terrifying battle.

A carefree American singer, a British academic, and a wealthy baron become involved in a complicated love triangle as Nazism rises in 1931 Berlin.
