English title: Black Book.
Netherlands, 1944. A Jewish woman is hiding at a Christian home, but all of a sudden is thrown into the dangerous world of espionage for the Dutch Resistance.
There is nothing is this melodrama which transcends what one would expect from a 16-year-old boy's mind. Its only possible claim to anything resembling relevance would be precisely that, I guess: to expose what would excite 16-year-old boys (or a segment of that population anyway). This universe comprises intrigue, treachery, sex, shallow psychology, vulgarity, shock, and the implicit awe at a beautiful woman's infinite endurance.
