WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

In 1940s Austria, peasant farmer Franz Jägerstätter (Diehl) refuses to fight for the German Army, and is thus persecuted by the Nazis…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Terrence Malick’s most linear movie in years focuses on a conscientious objector who refused to fight, in a brooding drama that contains all of Malick’s trademarks (for better or for worse).
