The Priest And the Nazi (2006)
The soul of good and evil explored in two characters: a Nazi SS officer
fleeing Germany right after the end of the war and a Catholic priest he
encounters.
The Nazi: a perpetrator of the holocaust; one who pulled the trigger and
opened the valves. Now a fugitive trying to escape to South America, he
needs the aid of the church in doing so. The priest: a good man who believes
the teachings of the church, trapped in his little parish, yearning for
privileges and indulgences he's fancied for years.
The priest's edge: The Church and the righteousness of God. The Nazi's edge:
His will. The priest and the Vatican will do as he asks provided the Nazi
confess fully and sincerely, all of his monstrous sins.
In a test of wills they find themselves on equal footing: both fallible
human beings. But are the sins they each commit for themselves or for the
institutions they serve?
Their paths cross, one toward corruption, the other toward forgiveness. The
story follows their journeys to their different fates.
