German deserter
The brand new war film is set in the last days of the Second World War and tells the story of the German deserter Heinrich (Robert Maaser), the young and courageous farmer’s wife Elsa (Marie Hacke) and a bunch of Nazis. On his way home from the front to his daughter, Heinrich finds himself in the clutches of a marauding SS troop.
Their leader (Alexander Scheer) has him hanged in a tree. But he is saved in the nick of time by Elsa, who hides him on her farm. Meanwhile, the SS searches for a Jewish treasure hidden in a nearby village, but encounters bitter resistance from the exhausted villagers, who want to keep the treasure for themselves. Soon, Heinrich and Elsa are unwittingly drawn into this action-packed hunt for the gold, culminating in a bloody confrontation in the village church.
