The Jewish Nazi?

This film unfolds the incredible tale of Alex Kurzem from Melbourne, a young boy who escaped the brutal massacre of his family’s shtetl in Belarus in 1941. He managed to survive in the frigid woods during one of the harshest winters, only to be captured by a Latvian battalion. Rather than ending his life, they showed him compassion, giving him a new identity, a uniform, and a gun, turning him into their child mascot, dubbed “Hitler's youngest soldier.” Adapted from the bestselling book ‘The Mascot’ and an acclaimed ABC documentary, the film delves into Alex’s journey to Australia with his adopted Latvian family and his life in Altona, a suburb of Melbourne.
