The Traitor

Description

Drawing on the true story of the White Rose - the resistance movement of young Germans against the Nazi regime - The Traitor tells of one woman who offers her life in the ultimate battle against tyranny, during one of history's darkest hours. Summer 1942: as war rages across Europe, a series of anonymous leaflets appear around the University of Munich, speaking out against Nazi atrocities. Natalya Petrovich, a student, knows who is behind them - a secret group called the White Rose. As a volunteer nurse on the Russian front, Natalya witnessed the horrors of war first-hand. She willingly enters the White Rose's circle, where every hushed conversation, every small act of dissent could mean imprisonment or death by the Gestapo. Natalya risks everything alongside her friends, hoping the power of words will encourage others to resist. But even among those she trusts most, there is no guarantee of safety. When danger strikes, she must take an extraordinary gamble in her own personal struggle to survive.
