Georg Elser, a carpenter from Königsbronn, resolved to assassinate Hitler single-handedly after the Nazis seized power. His homemade bomb, placed in Munich's Bürgerbräukeller, missed its target by only 13 minutes. 13 minutes that might have changed the course of history.
This highly acclaimed and award-winning film tells the story of Georg Elser, an ordinary craftsman and overlooked German resistance hero. Who was this man who foresaw the menace of Hitler’s war and dared to act while so many others remained silent or compliant?
