Landesverräter

Switzerland, 1942: Hoping to make a career as a singer in Germany, the poor vagabond Ernst Schrämli sells Swiss military information to a flamboyant Nazi secret agent. When this is discovered, he is accused – and becomes the first Swiss victim of the Second World War. Michael Krummenacher's modern historical drama is based on true events and casts a critical spotlight on Switzerland’s ambivalent dealings with Nazi-Germany. A thrilling drama of great discursive power. Regards Neufs provides audio description for this film via the Greta App.
