A trenchant image of the complications self-discovery and personality formation can be for adolescents.

A trenchant image of the complications self-discovery and personality formation can be for adolescents.


Three 15-year-olds live in Ebensee, a village in Austria where in the annual memorial ceremony at the former concentration camp was disrupted by a group of youths with air rifles.


Michi’s computer contains both a traditional folk song about his home village and a heavy punk track. As we see him impersonating Michael Jackson, taking part in a procession in lederhosen and felt hat and brandishing a rattle, or joking about a piece of anti-Nazi graffiti, a trenchant image takes shape of how complicated self-discovery and personality formation can be for adolescents; the distance between the most divergent models for identity is remarkably small.
