Photo Gallery Scenes from 'Kriegerin'
Newcomer Alina Levshin plays the role of Marisa, a 20-year-old neo-Nazi in eastern Germany.
Her violent boyfriend Sandro, shown here bullying foreigners on a train...
...is jailed during the course of the film, which fuels Marisa's anger.
The couple is part of their community's deeply entrenched far-right extremist scene, and both commit crimes for their cause.
With an emotionally distant mother, Marisa relies on her terminally ill Nazi grandfather, who raised her to be his "Kriegerin," or "female fighter."
When Marisa begins experiencing pangs of guilt after a situation with two Afghan asylum seekers spirals out of control...
...the 15-year-old Svenja, shown here, becomes part of the neo-Nazi group.
As Svenja finds a sense of belonging with her new surrogate family, Marisa begins thinking about trying to escape. But it will be far more difficult than she imagines.
