An extraordinary award winning debut feature, based on the landmark investigations that led to the Frankfurt Auschwitz trials. In 1958, Johann Radmann, an idealistic young prosecutor, begins a campaign against Nazis who seemingly faded away at the end of World War II. Spurred by an implacable sense of justice and matched against institutional hostility, Radmann shines a piercing light on post-war Germany’s eagerness to forget its horrors. A bravely striking film centred by a powerful discourse on humanity’s resolve in confronting atrocity.
