...arms of the Nazis for the sake of their careers under what they believed would be a Nazi future in Europe--informs the conflict between collaborators and loyalists that runs throughout the film. When the fascist Minister of the Interior argues the importance of order in a "National Socialist state," the loyalist Minister of Justice angrily snaps back, "you mean Kraut...
Revel is a disillusioned Socialist who was once a Programme Commun candidate for the National Assembly. He defines his ideal of socialism broadly-"any evolution, reform or revolution" that tends to make an economy "function to the benefit of a larger number of men and [put it] a little more under their control."

Socialist Jean Gremling, who might be called Luxembourg's Frank Church, argues that "we don't want to be part of the silent war between secret service organizations here." That, of course, is just one more confirmation that the silent war in the grand duchy is uncomfortably real...
