"The dramatic search for a child murderer examines police methods and the character of the murderer as well. A number of unsolved murders so disrupts a city that organized crime joins the search and is ultimately more successful than the police, leading to the "kangaroo court" sequence that concludes the film. This method of justice offers a paradigm for the individual's fate at the hands of Nazi strongarm tactics." Director: Peter Lorre. Cast: Georg John, Peter Lorre. Black & White. English subtitles.
