Wave, The
- 1983 ----- color ----- 47 min ----- 16mm
- Teacher Burt Ross illustrates the mental atmosphere that allowed the German people to deny culpability for--and knowledge of--the genocide going on around them during the Nazi Reich by recreating the atmosphere for his students. Thus he begins The Wave, and drills new ideas of power, discipline and superiority into his surprisingly willing students. Soon the movement is sweeping the entire school, becoming the shaping force of its adherents' lives. Those who oppose it are greeted first with disdain, then with open animosity and finally with threats and violence. Finally, Ross brings The Wave to its shocking but inevitable conclusion, leaving his students with some lessons they will never forget.
