In 1943, Hitler marched through Europe in a devastating attack. In Munich, a group of young university students appeals to resistance as a means to deter the Nazi war machine - the Weisse Rose (White Rose) group. Sophie Scholl is the only woman to take part in action that is basically peaceful and consists in sending thousands of letters to Germans, especially in the south of the country, calling for resistance to the Nazi terror. While they are distributing pamphlets, she and her brother, Hans, are arrested. The days that follow are of severe questioning conducted by officers of the Gestapo, in which she tries, at all costs, to protect the members of the organization.
