His long, heartbreaking journey takes him from the decadence of pre-war Berlin to the squalor of the Dachau concentration camp. Through several horrific ordeals, Max’s soul soon becomes a battleground between the will to survive and the courage to love.</span><span style="font-size:12px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;vertical-align:baseline;background-color:transparent"> This show contains adult content and nudity, and is recommended for mature audiences only.<br>
