    • Synopsis
    • As World War II comes to a close, a quiet village in Germany faces its darkest hour. While the men are away on the frontline, Greta, Anni, and the remaining villagers try to preserve a semblance of life. But the
      discovery of unknown corpses along the river marks the unraveling of their world. As more corpses appear, fear gives way to hysteria, culminating in a chilling command: “The Russians are not to find a single
      living German.” With death looming and morality collapsing, the villagers face an impossible question: what does survival mean when humanity itself is lost?
