The Forger

Berlin, 1942: For young German Jew Cioma Schönhaus (Louis Hofmann), a menial munitions plant job was the sole tenuous barrier keeping him from deportation to the camps like his family. However, his graphic design talents got the notice of the resistance-and as his forging of identity papers let hundreds escape alive, it also vested him with the chutzpah to survive his own circumstances. Fact-based tale co-stars Luna Wedler, Nina Gummich, Jonathan Berlin. 116 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: German; Subtitles: English; theatrical trailer. In German with English subtitles.
