Michael Haneke's "White Ribbon" is a movie I didn't understand when I saw it, but have ruminated on since. It's relevance becomes more terrifying every year.
As I searched it online today, I came across a fellow Redditor's insightful analysis. This part stood out:
"... What Haneke demonstrates is that Nazis are not that special. They were children that lived through an incredibly tumultuous and painful period in German history, and as such, many grew to not have faith in anything. Their leaders, their social structure, the older generation - all failures in the eyes of the troubled, abandoned German youth. This, Haneke argues, makes people susceptible to radicalization."
