Der Bund Deutscher Mädel (1980)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
German League of Girls in the Hitler Youth movement. By age 10, all German girls were required to join the BDM. The BDM was the female organization under the Hitler Youth. At age 17 the girls could join the Belief and Beauty movement within the BDM. The primary focus of both movements was special training to become good wives mothers and homemakers. They learned cooking, sewing, child care . They learned all about Germany's leader Adolf Hitler and Nazism. My mother grew up in Nazi Germany and her stories about the BDM were very interesting. The children were not involved in the atrocities that occurred.

Open Double Feature RadarRadar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
