Описание: Max Bauer, war hero and Expressionist painter, is an ambitious prot g of the artistic-minded-but anti-Modernist-Adolf Hitler. He is the assigned curator of the infamous "Degenerate Art" and "Aryan Art" exhibitions in 1937 Berlin. Torn between ambition and revulsion, he defends his creative integrity, his colleagues, and his steadfast, half-Jewish physician wife Frieda from escalating Nazi terror. As danger mounts and his pacifism crumbles, Max battles an obsessive but refined Gestapo henchman determined to destroy them. His fight to save not only his artistic legacy but also his country and loved ones culminates with the massive "Crystal Night" pogrom, when-with Frieda-he resolves this high stakes jeopardy. This visual and fast paced story-with right-angle conflicts-is based upon true incidents, and includes the romance of a strong female character, a fresh spin on odious, historical figures, and a final struggle to destroy evil at its source.
