Drama

The name "Voss" is given to a high-ranking Nazi criminal who flees from Germany to South America after the end of the Second World War, like hundreds of thousands of other people. The escape route leads across the Alps and South Tyrol to Genoa and from there by ship to a supposedly better world in South America. Most of these refugees were "displaced persons", i.e. people who had become homeless. Many Nazi criminals also used the same escape route to reach safety. The film depicts the conflicts that arise during the flight, but also in South America, where perpetrators and victims meet again. The main characters of the film, he a murderer, she a survivor of Nazi terror, help each other on the run and experience for the first time what it means to love. Only gradually does it become clear who has which past and whether their love can still endure.

Ken Duken was so good, it was scary. He drew me into his character, aided by his good looks, the entire film. How his character was able to go from instinctual killer to compassionate, caring, and passionate man remains unbelievable. Worse, I fell in love with him. I am still debating his character with myself. Was Dr. Viktor Voss, a.k.a, Mr. Meinhardt, a good man? Is he worthy of a womin's love? Julie Engelbrecht was so good I still believe that is who shi is in real life. Plus, shi is a beauty. Her performance was so compelling, that I am still angry with her for what shi did in the end. The film was also well directed. R. I. P., Mr. Fischerauer, and thank you for such a beautiful and compelling story that has me thinking and thinking ..
