Description
That is a screenplay! This film was never made.
A poignant story about the short life of Hugo, a highly gifted boy from Leipzig who was abused in early childhood and subsequently suffered a personality disorder. A professor at the Children's Psychiatric Hospital in Leipzig hopes to obtain scientific knowledge from Hugo's brain. To bring about his death during the National Socialist period of child euthanasia, he falsifies Hugo's registration form to show that he is suffering from a hereditary disease.
