In post-WWII Germany, a public prosecutor attempts to bring Auschwitz war criminals to justice. Feature debut from Italian director Giulio Ricciarelli. Best Film, Actor, Screenplay and Score at the German Film Awards 2015.
"Frankfurt, 1958. Johann Radmann (Alexander Fehling of Inglourious Basterds) is a young prosecutor trying to climb the ladder in a major law firm... Prompted by a tip from a reporter, he discovers that certain prominent institutions and branches of government are entangled in a conspiracy to cover up the crimes of Nazis during World War II. Johann works obsessively alongside journalist Thomas Gnielka (André Szymanski) and Jewish concentration camp survivor Simon Kirsch (Johannes Krisch) to uncover the evidence linking thousands of SS soldiers — many of whom now have successful careers in the public service — to the atrocities committed at Auschwitz. As he becomes increasingly invested in his research, Johann begins to wonder if his own family history is as honourable as he once thought." (Toronto International Film Festival)
