Czech officer Karel Vavra is sent home from England by the Allies and attempts to rouse the rural population near Lidice to put up resistance to occupying German forces. But not until Nazi governor Reinhard Heydrich steps up the terror – having young women forcibly sent to the German eastern front and shooting a priest with his own hands – do the Czech farmers turn to acts of sabotage. With the help of his childhood sweetheart Jarmila and her father, Vavra assassinates Heydrich, triggering horrific reprisals by the Nazis ... (Berlinale)
