By Walter Moers is a small cartoon of Hitler in the bunker "and when I got it laid out from my children a few years ago, I was a bit perplexed. Man may thus devote such a difficult topic? After some hesitation, I chose the film is now the starting point for a classroom introduction to the topic. The discussion was very good, the objections were just as clear as the positive sides of uninhibited debate.
for myself is the biggest problem that Moers "only" the terror of the War is included. The terror against Jews and dissidents is spared. This is not intended as criticism of Moers, he certainly had to be limited. And the terrible dictator in the bathroom - that gets him quite down to normality. But the real target of the vicious terror against the Jews and remains in the background, even though it was clear at the end of the war, that this part of the war with all the latest products and have been promoted during the war itself should only take time ...
So that you can laugh about Hitler, remains ambivalent, but it gets out of the darkness and allows debate. That's good. But behind the laughter, you can also hide, so just no reflection occurs.
