Fünf letzte Tage (1982)

 

The five days between Sophie Scholl's arrest and her execution on 22 February 1943 as experienced by her cell neighbour Else Gebe.

From memory: Sparse, fragile and bleak one-room drama centers its narrative on the psychological hardships of the two prisoners and their relationship to each other and avoids dramatizing the actual historic event of their arrest, trial and execution.
