Synopsis
Autumn 1943: Berlin is bombed, and young Rosa Sauer flees to rural East Prussia while her husband fights as a soldier on the Eastern Front. Near the village, however, is Hitler’s headquarters, the “Wolf’s Lair”: Rosa and other women are forcibly recruited by the SS and forced to serve as tasters for the meals served to Hitler. The situation escalates when Stauffenberg’s assassination attempt fails in the summer of 1944, resulting in draconian measures. The women realize that the next attempt on Hitler’s life might involve poison, and that their lives are in danger—especially as the Red Army draws ever closer. When Rosa learns that one of the women is Jewish, she must find a way to save herself and her friend from certain death.
