The Captain from Kopenick 1956
A young shoemaker is arrested for stealing a small amount of money, and is jailed for fifteen years.

Ensnared in the absurd net of Prussian bureaucracy, he can't see any way out. That is, until he enters a thrift shop and spots a Prussian officer's uniform that fits him like a second skin...
