Before the Fall

Drama

Directed by Dennis Gansel

In 1942, Friedrich Weimer's boxing skills get him an appointment to a National Political Academy (NaPolA) – high schools that produce Nazi elite. Over his father's objections, Friedrich enrolls. During his year in seventh column, Friedrich encounters hazing, cruelty, death, and the Nazi code. His friendship with Albrecht, the ascetic son of the area's governor, is central to this education.

    Amazing that you found someone to love in Kentucky. It's certainly not the first place one imagines finding gay love. Have you seen the movie Before the Fall (2016)? It's a nice tale of an unlikely love. Hope to be so lucky one day!

    Fantastic Fest film number 11: Before the Fall. Serious bummer horror from Spain. Not my jam. boxd.it/bfkGFt

    Today, I reviewed the newest EP from @kierbyrnes.bsky.social, Before the Fall. I wrote my first draft at 3 AM one night during some persistent insomnia, so the review's a little unique. I tried to leave that vibe in the review when I edited it. Check it out. And, too, the awesome music! #MusicReview
