Die Blechtrommel / The Tin Drum

Volker Schlöndorff
     145 m.
Synopsis
Danzig, 1927. On his third birthday, the astonishingly intelligent little Oskar Matzerath stubbornly declares that he has decided not to grow any more in reaction to a world he doesn't like; a world which is on the verge of discovering Nazism. The child directs his protest against the world of adults with his attention-grabbing red and white drum and his strident glass-shattering screams.
