Superstar Tom Cruise heads an international cast as Col. Claus von
Stauffenberg, the aristocratic German officer who led the heroic
attempt to bring down the Nazi regime and end the war by planting a
bomb in Hitler's bunker. The "July 20 Plot" on Hitler's life is one
of the most heroic but least known episodes of World War II.
Severely wounded in combat, Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg returns
from Africa to join the German Resistance and help create Operation
Valkyrie, the complex plan that will allow a shadow government to
replace Hitler's once he is dead. But fate and circumstance conspire
to thrust Stauffenberg from one of many in the plot to a
double-edged central role. Not only must he lead the coup and seize
control of his nation's government... He must kill Hitler himself.
