Max is a handsome young man who, after a fateful tryst with a German soldier, is forced to run for his life. Eventually Max is placed in a concentration camp where he pretends to be Jewish because in the eyes of the Nazis, gays are the lowest form of human being. But it takes a relationship with an openly gay prisoner to teach Max that without the love of another, life is not worth living.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie's plot centers entirely on the persecution of homosexuals during the Holocaust. The only detected element is a 'Holiday Release,' which refers to the film's release date, not its content. There are no meaningful Christmas elements in the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution."
