Black Book

This ambitious and compelling war drama of personal courage and sacrifice is played out against the backdrop of occupied Holland during the chaotic, final months of WWII. Rachel Steinn, a young Jewish woman (Carice van Houten), joins the Dutch Resistance to find out who betrayed her family to the Nazis. In disguise, Rachel is sent to spy on Ludwig Müntze, a local Gestapo officer (The Lives of Others’ Sebastian Koch), fully aware that her true identity could be discovered at any time...
