Sophie Scholl – The Final Days offers a gripping, emotionally powerful account of a young woman's resistance to Nazi tyranny. Based on true events, the film follows 21-year-old Sophie Scholl, a member of the White Rose movement, through her arrest, interrogation, and trial in 1943 Munich. The Weiße Rose (White Rose) was a resistance group run by students at the University of Munich who distributed leaflets and used graffiti to decry Nazi crimes and the political system, while calling for resistance to the Nazi state and the war.

This screening is presented as part of the Autumn 2025 Filmbar Series, “Masterworks of German Film–Oscar Contenders Then and Now.” Spanning multiple decades, this collection reflects the breadth of German cinema.
