Bad Nazi, Good Nazi / Lessons from Mitch  

dir. Chanoch Ze'evi , Israel, Germany, Poland, 2021, 65 min

POLISH PREMIERE
Discover the story of Wilm Hosenfeld, a Nazi officer who saved the pianist from Roman Polanski’s remarkable film. Recent findings have revealed that over the course of the war he actually saved about sixty people, Jewish and Polish alike. Before joining the Wehrmacht, Hosenfeld was principal of the school in the German village Thalau, which is currently debating if he should be remembered as a local hero. Many residents would rather not deal with the questions his story raises about their past. Others want to commemorate Hosenfeld by naming the school after him. The passionate debate forces skeletons out of closets, reflecting conflicting ways that Germany deals with its past.
