Spring 1917. 17-year-old Paul Bäumer (Felix Kammerer) and his friends are extremely eager to go to war, to beat the French soundly and march to Paris victorious. This is how the boys imagine it. This is the war they are promised by their principal in a rousing speech. With jubilation, fanfare and song, the “youth of iron” marches off – for Emperor, God and Fatherland. The enthusiasm, however, does not last long. When they arrive at the Western Front after days of marching. It’s pouring rain. The trenches are filling up and fast becoming a swamp. But the French do not wait to attack. Flares rise up, brightening no-man's land with a surreal beauty. Until all hell breaks loose again and the French bombard the trenches. What follows portrays Paul and his comrades’ first-hand experience of how the initial euphoria of war turns into horror, suffering and fear as they desperately fight for their lives in the trenches. The Cast Director Edward Berger (Patrick Melrose, Jack, Deutschland83) put together an impressive ensemble cast. The lead role of Paul Bäumer is played by a newcomer and theater-actor, Felix Kammerer. Albrecht Schuch (Lieber Thomas, Systemsprenger) takes on the role of Stanislaus Katczinsky, who becomes a close confidant to Paul during the war. Fighting alongside them are Edin Hasanovic (Je suis Karl, Skylines) as Tjaden Stackfleet, Aaron Hilmer (Das schönste Mädchen der Welt) as Albert Kropp, Moritz Klaus (Kleine Morde) as Franz Müller and Adrian Grünewald (Sløborn) as Ludwig Behm. Daniel Brühl (The Alienist - Die Einkreisung, Nebenan) strives for a truce as Matthias Erzberger. Devid Striesow (Ich bin dann mal weg) plays General Friedrichs. Other roles are played by Thibault De Montalembert (The Collapse), Anton von Lucke (Große Freiheit) and Andreas Döhler (Die Saat). The Screenplay The screenplay was written by Edward Berger, Ian Stokell and Lesley Paterson. The film is produced on behalf of Netflix by Malte Grunert (Land of Mine, A Most Wanted Man) together with his company Amusement Park Film, Daniel Dreifuss (Sergio, Guernica) and Edward Berger.
