In the 1930s and 40s, thousands of young people decided to follow a lifestyle opposed to the ideals of the National-Socialist regime. In Schlurf individuals who were never recognized as victims of the Nazis, although they were clearly persecuted as a youth group, are interviewed. Solely a small number of experts have shown interest in their story.
The film is not a conventional documentary of a historical subject, it is more of a “historical detective story” in which the question of historical continuity is examined, along with a search for the lasting effect of “things long past” in the present. What happens when a certain type of music is taken away from young people, their style of dancing is banned, their lifestyle is made a criminal act, and their culture is branded subversive and anti-state?
