Description
Set in Munich in 1943. Brother and sister, Sophie and Hans Scholl are members of student resistance group 'White Rose' against the Nazi regime and are arrested for distributing fliers around the University. The two students are interrogated and Hans finally breaks down and confesses. Sophie has no choice but to defend her beliefs and protect her brother and her friends. Based on the real activities of the 'White Rose' resistance group, recovered interrogation papers and witness interviews.

Editorial reviews
Enormously powerful and, as a testament to the power of human integrity, it is peerless.
Daily Mail  (07/22/2008)

Terrifically gripping
Dazed And Confused  (07/22/2008)

A compelling chronicle of courage.
Empire  (07/22/2008)

As with the brilliant 'Downfall', 'Sophie Scholl' is compelling viewing.
Hotdog  

Masterful and heart-rending
Sunday Express  (07/22/2008)

A fiercely sombre movie... powerfully acted.
The Guardian  (07/22/2008)

The film is superbly well-crafteds as a political thriller.
The Independent  (07/22/2008)

Stars Julia Jensch ["The Edukators"/"Die fetten Jahre sind vorbei"]. This was the Oscar nomination for Germany for 2006. A marvellously filmed and acted portrayal of Sophie Scholl and her involvement in "Die weiße Rose" -the movement that tried to incite the German people against Nazi atrocities by distributing leaflets. Sophie, then 21 years old, is captured [after so nearly getting away with her actions] by the Nazis and interrogated.

Julia Jentsch excels in the role of the only female member of the group, passionately fighting against horrific injustice. The second stage of the film involves gripping, interrogation and defence argument with marvellous, believable performances. Contrary to a couple of other reviewers here, I found the film evoked a great deal of tension. It led the viewer one way, then another; then there is the dramatic and powerful trial scene and the moving and shocking build up to the end.

This is the action of debate [the scenes in the film were also shot chronologically]and the whole is now movingly, now unnervingly underscored by the specially composed music of Reinhold Heil and Johnny Klimek.

The German film industry is in a "Blütezeit" - a blossoming time - with lots of very good, unusual work being produced. Perhaps this film was a little ponderous for Hollywood tastes, as it did not win [though I read that a Hollywood version is going to be made with Christina Ricci in the role of Sophie]. We shall see how Germany fares this coming February with the excellent "Das Leben der Anderen" [out on German DVD, not yet in this country -"The Life of the Others" - a love story/political thriller set in the former GDR].
