Set in Nazi Germany during World War II, the film follows 16-year-old Helmuth Hübener. A loyal citizen and devoted churchgoer, Helmuth begins to question the regime when his Jewish friend is arrested and a church leader publicly supports the Nazi line—forcing him to realize that allegiance to one’s country can become allegiance to a lie. Working in city hall, Helmuth gains access to forbidden information and, with the help of his friends Karl-Heinz and Rudi, begins listening clandestinely to banned radio broadcasts and printing underground resistance leaflets. As their small circle of dissent grows, the risk to them becomes ever more dire—especially when they attract the attention of the Gestapo investigator Erwin Mussener. Helmuth wrestles with faith, conscience and duty: what does it mean to be a “good German” when your country demands complicity with evil? As the Nazi state’s surveillance and brutality escalate, his secret actions carry devastating consequences. Ultimately, the film traces his arrest, trial and the harsh cost of his conviction for treason—emphasizing the bravery of ordinary youth standing up against tyranny, and the moral clarity required to challenge propaganda, fear and blind obedience. The 2025 film Truth & Treason stars Ewan Horrocks as Helmuth Hübener, the young German who dares to resist Nazi propaganda. Rupert Evans plays Erwin Mussener, the determined Gestapo investigator who becomes Helmuth’s chief adversary. Ferdinand McKay and Daf Thomas portray Helmuth’s close friends Karl-Heinz Schnibbe and Rudi Wobbe, who join him in his dangerous underground efforts. Nye Occomore appears as Salomon Schwarz, a character representing the persecuted Jewish community, while Joanna Christie takes on the role of Emma Hübener, Helmuth’s compassionate but fearful mother. Together, the ensemble delivers a tense and emotionally charged depiction of moral courage and the cost of standing against tyranny. historical drama and war film Rated PG-13 Movie time is 2 hours 3 minutes Coming Soon Regretting You Nov 21-23 Soul on Fire Nov 28-30 |
