About Stielke, Heinz, Fifteen...
Fifteen-year-old Heinz Stielke is a Hitler Youth fanatic who is devastated to learn a hidden truth about his respected father who was a German officer in WWII: He was Jewish. Pushed out of his community after the discovery, young Heinz falls into a tailspin of alienation and anger. He is subsequently thrust into a series of social collisions across the war-torn German fatherland.
Directed by Michael Kann, Stielke, Heinz, Fifteen... leans on a strong ensemble — Marc Lubosch, Gert Gütschow, Berthold Schulze — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1987.
