A compelling look into the motives, actions, and fates of those exceptional Germans who possessed the conscience and courage to resist the Nazi police state, but who failed to get crucial Allied support.
People profiled: a diplomat who warned the world in vain of impending invasions, a general who planned a coup that might have prevented WWII, a pastor who organized opposition, military officers who attempted to assassinate Hitler, civil servants who protected Jews, and students who wrote leaflets urging rebellion. Interviews and archival black-and-white footage raise the issue of an individual’s ethical responsibility to oppose an immoral regime. A 1991 Academy Award nominee for feature documentary.
