“Operation Walküre – Das Stauffenberg Attentat” is based on a true story and offers a compelling chronicle of the events of 20 July 1944. The feature film depicts the tense course of what is probably the best-known attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler, leader of the German Reich. It reconstructs in minute detail the actions of Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg and his fellow conspirators, and the risks they took for themselves and their families.
