Germany Pale Mother

In the 1930s Lene, a German woman, and the only dark-haired sibling in a family of seven sisters, is seen by Hans. Hans's friend Ulrich is a member of the Nazi party which initially makes Lene reluctant to see Hans, but after ascertaining that Hans is not a Nazi she agrees to continue seeing him. The two eventually marry. On Lene's birthday she learns that Hans has been conscripted to fight in Poland because he is a low-level bureaucrat who isn't part of the party, while Ulrich has been spared for the time being. In Poland, Hans murders innocent civilians and has a hard time adjusting to war, like many other soldiers. When he returns on leave he and Lene conceive a child, Anna, who is born during an air raid.
