Review Based on the true story of Helmuth Hübener, the 16 year-old leader of an anti-Hitler group in Nazi Germany, Truth and Treason explores the complex bond that forms between the brilliant young resistance fighter and Erich Müssener, the Gestapo agent intent on hunting him down. Each convinced of the rightness of his cause. Each forced to deal with the consequences of his beliefs. In the vein of The Pianist, this film examines the human struggle for freedom and confirms the impact of one courageous voice. |
