Synopsis
21-year-old German student Sophie Scholl was a leading member of the "White Rose" - a group of young people who offered resistance to the Nazi regime from within Germany itself, distributing leaflets among the public calling for the overthrow of Hitler during World War Two. Finally, in 1943, Sophie was arrested - but even while under interrogation with the shadow of her certain execution ahead, Sophie stood firm in her beliefs and refused to incriminate her fellow White Rose members. A moving and powerful film based on the trial records, and featuring dialogue taken from Sophie Scholl's own words.
