Die Stunde der Offiziere

Die Stunde der Offiziere (English: The Hour of the Officers) is a German semi-documentary movie of 2003 telling in chronological order about the German resistance attempts to kill Adolf Hitler and seize power in Germany in the 20 July plot of 1944.

A similar attempt by Axel von dem Bussche fails as the event is canceled due to allied air raid on Berlin.

Last hope is on Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg who, being in charge of Operation Walküre, has access to Hitler for reports.

After returning to Berlin, he orchestrates the 20 July plot which fails after rumors, reports and finally confirmation about Hitler's survival become known.

The "docu drama" integrates re-enacted scenes, eye witness reports, and original footage to illustrate German resistance actions in detail.
