Périot edits archival footage and questions the way we look at authority and its morals — like a revolutionary setting up a ticking bomb to blow up the present. “A German Youth” is a film about the present through the birth of the German RAF (Red Army Faction) and its origins in the first post-III Reich generation of West Berlin film students.)
