    “The Good Nazi” tells the story of Major Karl Plagge, a Nazi officer who during Holocaust turned his back on his dark ideology and risked his life to save hundreds of Jews. The film also tells the story of the people he tried to rescue and failed, and the people who survived because of him. It’s a story of heroism and moral choices in the most immoral of times. Speaker and archaeologist, Dr. Richard Freund, will hold a Question & Answer session following the movie.
