Rent Fog in August (2016)

Synopsis:

Based on the true story of 13-year-old Ernst Lossa (Ivo Pietzcker). Southern Germany, early 1940s. Ernst, a motherless child, is a bright but maladjusted boy. The homes and correctional facilities he has lived in so far have deemed him "uneducable".

By helping the other patients and planning an escape with Nandl (Jule Hermann), his first love, Ernst defies the clinic management, the very one who decides on whether the children there should live or die ...
