confront his blind nationalism.

1944 Germany. Ten year old Johannes Betzler, more commonly called Jojo, is the son of
good Germans, his father away fighting in Italy, while he is under the care of his mother
Rosie, with his older sister Inge recently having passed away from illness. With only one
true friend in the form of same aged, bespectacled Yorki, Jojo, in wanting to fit in, is
arguably entering what he would consider the most important phase of his young life in
attending a Nazi youth camp presided over by Captain Klenzendorf, Captain K's almost
too faithful assistant Freddy Finkel, and Fräulein Rahm, who takes Nazi policies in a
slightly off-kilter direction. Despite being considered an outsider by most of the other
youth in town, Jojo figures he has a leg up on everyone else at camp in that he is
constantly being guided by the spirit of Der Führer himself, Adolf Hitler, whose personal
bodyguard Jojo aspires to be when he grows up. In his general day-to-day life but also
supported by his time at camp, Jojo has a hatred for Jewish people despite not really
knowing anything about them or ever having met anyone of the Jewish faith, the
ultimate goal to kill them. So when Jojo meets someone Jewish for the first time,
especially as that meeting is in what is for him the most unlikely of circumstances, Jojo
has to figure out what to do. While truly believing he is a Nazi despite not really knowing
what that means, he has to decide either to follow what he has been taught in hating
and trying to kill any Jewish person despite knowing that killing is not in his true nature,
or not, which may have larger consequences with relation to family. While he decides, he
truly gets to know the person beyond the label of "Jewish" which may factor into what
happens.
