Truth and Treason

Truth & Treason

Based on the extraordinary true story of Helmuth Hübener, Truth & Treason follows a courageous teenager who dares to challenge the lies of Nazi Germany at a time when speaking the truth could cost him everything.

As World War II rages, sixteen-year-old Helmuth begins questioning the propaganda surrounding him. When his Jewish friend is taken away and even trusted religious leaders urge obedience to the regime, he faces an impossible choice: remain silent or stand for what he knows is right.

Armed with a typewriter, forbidden radio broadcasts and an unshakeable conviction that the truth must be heard, Helmuth and his friends begin a secret resistance campaign. But with the Gestapo closing in, every act of defiance brings them closer to a devastating reckoning.

Powerful, gripping and deeply relevant, Truth & Treason is a story of faith, conscience and the extraordinary courage it takes to speak truth when the world around you demands silence.
