“His defiance will never be silenced.”
In 1941 Nazi Germany, 16-year-old Helmuth Hübener begins questioning the regime after learning the truth about the war and seeing his Jewish friend persecuted. With two friends, he secretly listens to banned foreign broadcasts and distributes leaflets exposing Nazi lies. As the Gestapo closes in, the teenagers face mounting danger for choosing conscience over obedience. Based on the true story of one of Germany’s youngest resistance fighters.

Reviews & Thoughts
The ending was sad. On a less serious note, it’s odd how none of these characters who are meant to be German sound German. Also in some scenes, when his head was shaved, Helmuth Hübener looked kind of like Nicholas Hoult.
