The film takes place in an alternate reality in which the Nazis won World War II. The year is 1964 and an American journalist travels to Germany to cover Hitler's 75th birthday and the signing of a new peace treaty between the United States and the Nazi government. The American journalist accidentally gets involved in the murder investigation of two high-ranking German officers. She and the German investigator soon discover that the victims were responsible for the cover-up of Nazi atrocities against its Jewish citizens. When the two form an uneasy partnership to uncover the truth, they find the entire might of Hitler's empire out to stop them. [More]
