“Soldiers of Tomorrow“ (Soldaten von Morgen) is a 1941 German propaganda film about youth education.
Directed by Alfred Weidenmann, a famous German youth book author, who wrote propaganda books and directed propagand films for the Hitler Youth during the Nazi era,the first part of the movie shows, in the form of a theater play, a mocking presentation of the youth of England. It starts with a quote from Socrates, that good and bad habits form during the youth.
The theater play then mockingly presents British youth, showing them as being more occupied with wearing expensive clothes, drinking and smoking, but ultimately being bad soldiers who are only good at surrendering.
The second part contrasts this with German youth, which are shown to be educated in sports and shooting, fencing, horse riding etc. and thus eventually turn into good soldiers.
