violence
A person is knocked to the ground by a blow to the head, resulting in minor bloody detail. Another scene depicts Nazis firing guns at people attempting to escape over the border, although no one is visibly injured. A sequence of real footage from WWII shows undetailed gunfire and civilians being arrested at gunpoint.
additional issues
Scenes of mild threat and suspense run throughout. In one scene, a Nazi soldier leers at a visibly nervous woman and begins to approach her, but she manages to deter his advances. There are occasional scenes involving antisemitic and xenophobic behaviour by members of the Nazi regime, including one in which a Nazi officer shouts at a frightened Jewish family and calls them ‘filthy’; the family’s perilous situation is eventually resolved in a reassuring manner, however, and discrimination is clearly condemned. Other issues include brief, non-graphic references to suicide, and infrequent mild bad language (‘bastard’).
