Movie description:
Set at the time of the Second World War, Abel Tiffauges, the product of a harsh french boarding school education is an innocent man who likes photographing children. Chancing on an attempted rape of a young girl he knows, Abel Tiffauges is accused of raping here, an accusation supported by incriminating but innocent photographs of her and other children. To avoid prison he is recruited to join France’s war effort as a soldier. His career as a soldier is cut short when he is captured. He strikes up a friendship with a German officer which enables hime to work first for Goering and then in the kitchen at a training school for Hitler Youth. As the war comes to a close, Abel Tiffauges realises what is about to happen to his charges when he witnesses a tragic accident which kills his favourite boy, whilst the boys are training to be soldiers. After this event, he escapes, taking a Jewish boy from a concentration camp along with him.Boy Actors
