Jojo, a lonely German boy during World War II has his world shaken when he learns that his single mother is hiding a Jewish girl in their home. Influenced by a buffoonish imaginary version of Adolf Hitler, he begins to question his beliefs and confront the conflict between propaganda and his own humanity.

I really loved Jojo Rabbit. It may seem weird to say that about a film dealing with Nazi's. However, Taika Waititi manages to really weave a superb movie. The film is full of great performances and manages to capture a lot of emotion. Highly recommended.
