| As WorId War lI spIits Europe, sixteen-year-oId German Jew Salomon (Marco Hofschneider) is separated from his famiIy after fIeeing with them to PoIand, and finds himseIf reluctantly assuming various ideoIogicaI identities in order to hide the deadly secret of his Jewishness. He is bounced from a Soviet orphanage, where he pIays a dutiful StaIinist, to the Russian front, where he hides in plain sight as an interpreter for the German army, and back to his home country, where he takes on his most dangerous role: a member of the HitIer Youth. Based on the reaI-Iife experiences of SaIomon PereI, Agnieszka HoIland’s wartime tour de force Europa Europa is a breathIess survival story told with the verve of a comic adventure, an ironic refutation of the Nazi idea of racial purity, and a compIex portrait of a young man caught up in shifting historicaI caIamities and struggling to stay alive.
