From Hilde with Love (15)
Currently in Chapter Cinema Cardiff 28/6-3/7/2025
German with English subtitles
In this captivating historical drama, we spend intimate time with Hilde Coppi, a heroine of the anti-Nazi resistance in Berlin. In 1942, whilst heavily pregnant, Hilde is detained by the Gestapo, accused of transcribing coded transmissions from Moscow as part of the Red Orchestra activist group. As Hilde awaits her fate, she looks back at her joyful romance with Hans and the discovery of the hopeful activism movement in what becomes the most beautiful summer of her life whilst the world is screaming for peace. With an extraordinary performance from Liv Lisa Fries (Babylon Berlin) and evocatively filmed, this is an affecting portrait of love at a time of desperate danger and oppression.

Fitting individuals into collective memory.
