ABOUT THE FILM:

In German with English subtitles.

Berlin, 1942: 22-year-old physician’s assistant Hilde (Liv Lisa Fries) is madly in love with Hans (Johannes Hegemann) and joyfully pregnant. But amid their passion, there is grave danger – the couple belongs to the “Red Orchestra,” a group of anti-fascists aiding the Soviet Union against the Nazis. When the group is arrested by the Gestapo, Hilde is sent to prison to await trial, where a guilty verdict means certain death. Giving birth to her son while in custody, Hilde reflects on her life and finds a new, quiet, inspirational strength as she faces the ultimate test of love and courage.

Laila Stieler draws from historical accounts to craft a compelling screenplay that sheds light on the life of the real Hilde and Hans Coppi. Acclaimed auteur Andreas Dresen masterfully directs Fries’ powerful award-winning portrayal of Coppi to create a portrait of a woman driven by love, resistance, and resilience.
