Hildegard is the ideal Aryan girl living in Nazi Germany. She has blonde hair and blue eyes; she looks like she jumped out of a propaganda poster. She works at the theater and is obsessed with 1930s movie stars. She’s the leader of the Hitler Youth program in her small town in the Bavarian Alps, and she has a career ahead of her in the Nazi Women’s League. After years of struggling as an outsider, she’s finally found a community where she fits in, even though there’s a small voice in the back of her mind telling her that something’s not quite right. This voice becomes louder when her father, a prominent Nazi industrialist, hires a new field hand: Miguel is a cynical young Spanish Civil War veteran with a life-threatening secret.
As the relationship between Hildegard and Miguel deepens, Hildegard discovers the community that was once so welcoming and accepting has turned against her, and soon she finds herself fighting for her own life. Hildegard must grapple with her own beliefs and faces a question she once thought was easy: when your life is on the line, do you choose true love, integrity, or survival?
Inspired by the real-life accounts of Auschwitz survivors and everyday citizens living in interwar Germany, Red Flags tells the infamous story of the rise of Nazi Germany and World War II from the perspective of the perpetrators. From the glittering cabarets of post-Jazz Age Berlin, the picturesque mountain villages of the Bavarian Alps, and the snowy fields of Poland, Red Flags is a sweeping epic that follows one woman’s struggle between the love she feels for her country and her own moral compass.
