This is a cinematic adaptation about the true story of Stella Goldschlag, who turned over hundreds of fellow Jewish people during World War II. In Berlin, 1940, 18-year-old Stella is obsessed with American Jazz, which the Nazis have banned, and dreams of singing onstage in America. But Stella has even bigger problem than the fact that the Nazis have banned the music she loves; she is Jewish. While Stella and her parents are working in labor camps in a weapons factory, they are faced with the possibility of being dragged into a concentration camp. To escape this fate, Stella begins to act as an informant to the Gestapo to imprison Jews. Despite these actions, Stella’s parents are taken to Auschwitz and killed, while Stella is imprisoned by the allied forces after the war is over. Is Stella a victim or a perpetrator? Paula Beer, who made a name for herself through director François Ozon’s Frantz (2016), shines in the multi-layered character of Stella. (CHUN Jinsu)
