Dietrich Bonhoeffer has emerged as one of the great theologians of the last century. His books, Cost of Discipleship, Ethics, Life Together, and Letters and Papers from Prison, are considered classics. What is even more remarkable is the story of the man behind the works - who became a pastor and theologian during the rise of the Nazis and then secretly joined the assassination plots to kill Adolf Hitler. Bonhoeffer's story is one of the most dramatic odysseys in recent history.
Master storyteller Martin Doblmeier combines remarkable archival footage and photographs, as well as revealing interviews with those who knew Bonhoeffer best - his students, friends and family. Also included are reflections from Nobel Laureate Desmond Tutu and the emotional last interview with Bonhoeffer's best friend and confidant, Eberhard Bethge.
