Output (English): In 1933 Berlin, Professor Nichols Kent Smith runs the American Colony School. It is next to the Horst Wessel School, where young Germans are indoctrinated into Nazism. During a brawl between the student bodies, Karl Bruner Tim Holt, a German youth born in the United States, objects when Anna Muller Bonita Granville, a US citizen born in Germany, smacks him with her baseball bat. The students are attracted to each other despite this beginning. Annas parents had sent her to Germany to be educated, although they allowed her to go to the American school. Soon, the professor, Anna, and Karl become good friends, though they dont agree politically. After a while though, they lose touch with each other. Six years later, as war looms in Europe, Karl Bruner, now a lieutenant in the Gestapo, removes students of the wrong nationalities from the American School. Anna is taken out although by then she is working as an assistant teacher. As she was born in Germany to German parents, the German government classifies her as German despite her US citizenship. Nichols tries to find Muller, but the U.S. consulate has no power and Annas German grandparents are too frightened to help. Nichols friend Franz Erhart Lloyd Corrigan suggests that the professor get permission from the Ministry of Education to inspect a certain labor camp, where Muller is likely being held. Nichols happens to meet Gestapo Colonel Henkel Otto Kruger and his aide and protege Bruner. Henkel approves Nichols request to visit Muller but, in private, the young Bruner tries to dissuade Nichols. He says that Muller has become a model German. Nichols cannot believe this and finds he is right when he speaks privately with Muller at the camp. She discourages Nichols from trying to rescue her, as it would be too dangerous and stands little chance of success. Bruner recommends Muller for an advanced Geopolitik course at a German university but, when interviewed by Henkel and Dr. Graf Hans Conried of the education department, Anna turns down the opportunity, fearing they intend her to become a spy against the US. She is sent back to the camp and demoted from the staff to a laborer. Learning that she has engaged in antiNazi behavior, Henkel orders her to be sterilized. When Bruner learns of this, he tries to persuade Anna to pretend to be a good Nazi and bear his child to prove her usefulness to Germany, but she refuses. She runs away from the camp and reaches Berlin, where she hides in a Roman Catholic church. A search party finds her and takes her away over the protests of the bishop H. B. Warner. Henkel orders her to receive ten lashes and sends Bruner to witness her punishment. After she is whipped the second time, Bruner stops the action, although he knows he has doomed himself and Anna. Bruner pretends to have realized his mistake and recants. Henkel however arranges for a national radio broadcast of the trial of Bruner and Muller. He promises Karl full honors at his funeral. Professor Nichols is ordered to leave Germany immediately or he will be arrested as an accessory to treason. At the airport, Nichols hears Karl use his opening statement to denounce Hitlers Germany before the young man is shot and killed. Anna is shot and killed as she rushes to Karl.
