How easy are people to manipulate, govern or influence? How much of an own will and desire can we keep when people around us says or see things different?
In the middle of all Christmas preparation and organisation of life at home, I took a break for a couple of hours to see a movie I thought could be good. And it was good. Not in the great movie type of way, and definitely not a Christmas feel good story or so on. But it was good as reminder, about people and the world. Die Welle brings up alot of questions. About a group of young people that didn't belive it was possible that a new dictatorship could be created this days. But they got convinced in a very clear but disastrous way.
Ya, I know it's an "old" story. And that it has been other movies about "the wave". But I still think it's good to see something like this. It shows how easy it can be that groups creates with strange aim, when people don't think for them self or don't dare to stand up for them self.
I know that the influence of a group usualy is very strong. And it's very easy to let things go. But the question is how far would I let it go for my self? I can't tell. Maybe I should be one of them that from the begining thought it was a fun idea, and then just couldn't see when we passed the line...
