A mixed bag. A compelling topic becomes somewhat dull due to an uneven lead performance by Germany's "Robert Redford", Alexander Fehling (Inglorious Basterds) He is stiff like a cigar store Indian through much of the movie; he shows some life subsequent to the discovery that the conspiracy of silence is widespread in Germany. The romance with a lackluster ambitious girl is entirely unnecessary to the plot and slows down the narrative sweep. Gert Voss (now deceased) as the state prosecutor provides an interesting portrait of a man still suffering from the after-effects of the Nazi regime. The production values look cheap and the muted cinematography does not help. I really love this topic, involving a crucial time in German history, but this treatment has all the earmarks of a television miniseries produced by people lacking the required movie making experience to tackle this story at this time.
