During the Second World War, a small group of students at Munich University begin to question the decisions and sanity of Germany's Nazi government. The students form a resistance cell which they name the "White Rose" after a newsletter that is secretly distributed to the student body. At first small in numbers and fearful of discovery, the White Rose begins to gain massive support after a Nazi Gauleiter nearly incites a student riot after a provokative speech. At this point, the matter is taken over by the German Gestapo, who pledge to hunt down and destroy the members of the White Rose.
User Reviews
Sad and very well done. Die Weiße Rose is a
sad, touching film. I imagine that it was popular in Europe, but it
seems that nearly nobody here has seen it--a shame, really, because it
is so good. Yes, there was a resistance in Germany. The movie focuses on
the story of two young people involved in said resistance, an attempted
feat that makes them seem like heroes to almost everybody on the
planet.
But it isn't just the story that's good. That wouldn't be
enough, really, since there are lots of movies which take exciting
ideas and screw them up horribly. Die Weiße Rose is very well filmed,
very subtle and exciting, and very sad.
