Run Like Jager

Run like jÄger

Thanks to an exchange program, Kurt is spending a year in the small town in Germany where his grandfather grew up. When a bully accuses him of being a coward “just like his grandfather,” Kurt starts to search for the truth — a truth that means finding out what his grandfather did in World War Two.

He hopes he can handle it.
