January
1945. Nazi occupied Holland lies under a blanket of
snow. A young man, Michiel, defiant in his hatred
for the Nazis, inadvertently receives a map detailing
the hiding place of a crashed RAF pilot and sets off
to prove his worth. He finds the pilot, Jack, badly
injured, but the situation becomes more desperate
when a dead Nazi trooper is found and the hunt for
the killer commences. Unaware of the terrible consequences
that await his family, Michiel decides to help Jack
escape, undertaking a perilous journey that could
cost him everything he has ever known. From the Producer
of the multi-award winning Black Book, and co-starring
Jamie Campbell Bower (Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows
& Twilight New Moon), Winter in Wartime is a breathtaking
cinematic masterpiece that shows the true human cost
of a terrible conflict. In the darkest days of the
coldest winter, a hero will be made.
