In 1943, as Hitler continues to wage war across Europe, a group of college students mount an underground resistance movement in Munich called the White Rose. Sophie Scholl is captured during a dangerous mission to distribute pamphlets on campus with her brother Hans. Cross-examined by the Gestapo, Scholl delivers a passionate call to freedom and personal responsibility that is both haunting and timeless.
