In this adaptation of Josef Nesvadba's satirical short story the half-witted sixteen-year-old son of a Nazi rocket engineer proves to be a more skilful mathematician than his father. (Summer Film School)
Reviews (1)
Josef Nesvadba's short story inspired a short film, which was screened as a double bill with The Death of Tarzan. The idea for a micro satire was not a bad one, but the resulting film is full of clichés of the time, both in its portrayal of the Nazis and in its overall view of the wartime realities.
