Swing Kids (1993 Film)
Swing Kids is a film depicting an anti-nazi movement in Hamburg, Germany in 1939. Based on true events, the story follows fictional characters, specifically teens and young adults from the German middle class. Peter and Thomas are two friends who are studying engineering at the university. They are first shown to be apathetic to the extreme political changes occurring and they spent their nights going to underground clubs that played swing music. Swing and Jazz have been determined by the government to be degenerate, being composed most often by non-Aryan musicians, and thus outlawed. By the end of the film, Peter and Thomas have polarized views and Peter is sent to a concentration camp by the Hitler Youth, which Thomas has become a member of.
