He hates this change, but understands that it is important for his father's success and for that reason, he strives to adapt to the change and help the family in this time of adjustment.

He doesn't know anything about Nazism, nor about the extermination of Jews, but when he looks at the fence, he notices the presence of a child, very thin and wearing a striped pajamas.
