This is a very timely movie with thought-provoking ideas, great music, and an amazing cast.
"Swing Kids is a 1993 American historical drama film starring Robert Sean Leonard, Christian Bale, Barbara Hershey, Noah Wiley, and Kenneth Branagh. The title refers to a youth subculture in Nazi Germany, in which teenagers embraced American and British swing music in defiance of the Nazi regime. The film follows two high school students in their attempt to be “Swing Kids by night and Hitler Youth by day,” a decision that acutely impacts their friends and families." (Wikipedia)
