2008 ‘Die Welle’ Directed by Dennis Gansel
A school teacher discusses types of government with his class. His students find it too boring to repeatedly go over national socialism and believe that dictatorship cannot be established in modern Germany. He starts an experiment to show how easily the masses can become manipulated.

You know... For years I have known of the existence of this film, its director as well as the cast, but it was precisely because of the synopsis the reason that always left me in a dilemma of whether to see it or not because in my mind two scenarios could happen: it turned out to be a risky proposal or a huge overflowing pretentiousness. Did I stand to lose anything by seeing it now? Of course not, I was gaining a new film experience... So last night see this one.
Let me make it clear: before you read on, I am not a political scientist by any means, and everything I will talk about in this review is only…
On paper, Die Welle seems like the kind of film you would expect Michael Haneke to make; an allegorical story with an important socio-political message that can feel like a lecture in the way it is told. As anyone who has watched - nay, endured - Funny Games will know, his work can often feel punitive, as if the viewer is being reprimanded for doing something wrong. Now, I happen to think that despite being incredibly unlikeable, Funny Games is a masterpiece. But what Dennis Gansel has done with Die Welle is far more accessible and entertaining, although not necessarily better.

os alunos: na verdade eu gosto do hitler e estou estudando sobre ele entendeu e eu não vou julgar ele sem saber a história real dele
Immer, wenn ich jemanden höre, der behauptet, es gäbe nicht einen einzigen guten Film aus Deutschland, muss ich schmunzeln und an Die Welle denken.
Gewiss gibt es noch eine ganze Reihe weiterer wirklich großartiger Beiträge aus Deutschland in den letzten Jahren, aber Die Welle hat bei mir seit der Erstsichtung einen bleibenden Eindruck hinterlassen und haute mich bei jeder weiteren Sichtung immer wieder aufs Neue um. Der Film bringt seine Message zwar äußerst plakativ und wenig subtil herüber, doch an Eindringlichkeit verliert diese dadurch nichts. Und das nicht zuletzt dank der tollen Inszenierung und dem gut geschriebenen Drehbuch. Selbstverständlich muss an dieser Stelle auch Jürgen Vogel erwähnt und hoch gelobt werden!
Eine beachtliche Darbietung seinerseits und ein immernoch erfrischend eindrucksvoller und fesselnder Streifen.
Uma alegoria provocativa, com bom início, mas que sofre com figuras caricatas que tornam a narrativa óbvia e inverossímil.
Filme-apostila, bom para ser exibido em colégios.
