In January 1945, Helmuth James von Moltke, a dashing young aristocrat, was hanged in his native Germany, condemned for his refusal to collaborate with Hitler's genocidal program. WITNESS AGAINST HITLER is a gripping dramatization of von Moltke's inspiring story. James Wilby is stirring in the role of the hero, a lawyer who used his international connections to help Jews escape from the Nazis.
