Plot To Kill Hitler

Based on a true story.

Can their bold scheme end the madness?

In the waning days of Nazi Germany, a group of senior army officers led by suave aristocrat Col. Claus von Stauffenberg risks all to save what´s left of their war-ravaged nation. Their goal: kill the Fuhrer during a strategy meeting at his Wolfsschanze (Wolf´s Lair).

Brad Davis (Midnight Express) plays von Stauffenberg in this re-creation of the the July 20, 1944 event - which grew out of the Third Reich´s Operation Valkyrie emergency plan - that might have changed World War II´s bloody outcome. This David L. Wolper (Roots, The Thorn Birds) production glistens with period authenticity and crackles with suspense as directed by Lawrence Schiller (The Executioner´s Song). History records the result of The Plot to Kill Hitler. This gripping movie tells the powerful tale of sacrifice and heroism behind it.
