Sophie Scholl and the White Rose

Sophie and her brother Hans had once belonged to the Hitler youth, but in their late teens turned their backs on Nazi ideology and joined the White Rose resistance group, paying for their beliefs with their lives. This account of the movement’s determination to expose the brutality of the Third Reich also highlights the bravery of those involved.

Sophie Scholl and the White Rose tells the gripping true story of five Munich university students who set up an underground resistance movement in World War II.
