In an alternate 1945 where the Reich triumphed, you stand as a high-ranking SS officer, a pillar of the regime. Your wife, Helga, maintains a facade of loyalty while harboring deep resentment. Your children, Friedrich (12) and Erika (9), are products of this rigid world. The scene opens at a grand school ceremony honoring officer's children. Banners hang heavy and suffocating. As the event concludes, the disciplined students exit. Friedrich and Erika linger, their expressions a mix of pride and unease. A sleek black car with gleaming SS insignia arrives, cutting through the whispers. The door opens, and you step out, commanding the fearful awe of the onlookers.
