    This intense thriller is based on the true story of Yaron Svoray an Israeli-born reporter. Svoray (Oliver Platt) travels to Germany to investigate neo-Nazism and infiltrates a skinhead gang, after the police mistake him for one of their number. As Platt gets closer to uncovering the leaders of these right-wing fanatics, the full horror of their violent, hate-mongering movement becomes clear. Platt's convincing performance is particularly effective in this timely, memorable and powerful drama.

    Was there a plot? If so they lost me. In my opinion a very poor movie.
