No pun intended - I can only imagine what it must have felt like to have been alive and living (well barely, at least trying the best one could), during the time the movie plays. The right wing taking over Germany, was not overnight ... as others have already shown (documentaries or reading about it), you can see this was a process ... and one with a catastrophic result for all involved. Some more, some less affected by it of course.
So we get a few people here who try their best to fight and survive that time. And while that may sound harrowing, there are also life affirming scenes and scenes that contain "fun" ... life is not bleak all the time. And you have to find the small things that can make you happy ... or hold on to your (dear) life and continue with it as good as possible. Whether you want to fake things (not just your smile, talking IDs here) to help you ... just remember not to compare the time back then with any current climate that is not even close to fit it ...
