About this title

Synopsis

The arrival of National Socialism saw life in Oberstdorf, high in the Bavarian Alps, transformed. Through the stories of the villagers – a Jewish dentist who escaped to America, a blind boy whose life was judged ‘not worth livingâ€, a Nazi mayor who tried to shield those who were persecuted – Julia Boyd sheds light on the way the regime took hold and the changing attitudes towards it as war developed.
