Massively into swastikas

Johannes 'Jojo' Betzler is a 10-year old wee lad on the verge of becoming the bestest loyal little nazi in Jungvolk. Trouble is Jojo is a bit too nice for the third reich business and having an imaginery friend Adolf for company makes him an outcast of society and not in harmony with the uniform nazi Shangri-La. Not the most ground-breaking of satires, courtesy of Taika Waititi (Flight of the Conchords, Hunt for the Wilderpeople), but fun moments with serious undertones, witty dialogue and overall entertaining cinema.
