From Hilde, With Love
A polished biopic of Hilde Coppi, a German resistance fighter with the Red Orchestra anti-fascist group, whose resilience is tested to the limit when she is arrested in 1942 while pregnant.
Andreas Dresen’s polished and evocative period drama, set in 1942, tells the true story of one woman’s resilience in the face of the Nazi regime. Hilde Coppi (Liv Lisa Fries) was a German resistance fighter with the Red Orchestra anti-fascist group. After falling in love with her comrade Hans (Johannes Hegemann), Hilde becomes pregnant. But as the birth of her son approaches, she is arrested and imprisoned by the Gestapo, pushing her inner strength and resilience to their absolute limits. Dresen employs a non-linear narrative to craft a detailed and emotionally resonant film anchored by a powerhouse performance from Fries.
