Synopsis
The film follows in the wake of young Rosa who flees bomb-stricken Berlin in the autumn of 1943 and heads to a small, isolated village near the eastern border. This is where her in-laws live and where her husband, who’s deployed on the front, has advised she take shelter until the war ends and he returns. Rosa soon discovers that this seemingly sleepy village conceals a secret: in the forest bordering the hamlet is Hitler’s headquarters, the Wolf’s Lair.

Interesting facts
Although it draws on the real historical events as recounted by the sole surviving "taster", who died in 2014 aged 97, the film is adapted from the 2018 novel of the same name by Rosella Postorino.
