Downfall 2-Disc DVD

A harrowing and claustrophobic historical drama, featuring an unforgettable performance from Bruno Ganz and an unflinching portrayal of the final collapse of the Nazi regime.

From Dad's Collection

This copy comes from my dad's personal collection. Dad was an actor and scriptwriter with a genuine love of world cinema, independent film and memorable performances. His collection remains an important part of Kate's Treasures15, with each title now looking for a new home where it can continue to be appreciated.

Directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel, Downfall is set during the final days of the Second World War as Berlin is surrounded and the Nazi leadership retreats into an underground bunker. As the regime collapses above and below ground, denial, fear and fanaticism continue to shape the decisions of those trapped inside.

Featuring Bruno Ganz, the film combines an intensely claustrophobic setting with the destruction unfolding across Berlin, creating a powerful historical drama about dictatorship, fanaticism and the catastrophic consequences of political extremism.

An important addition for collectors of Oliver Hirschbiegel films, Bruno Ganz performances, Second World War cinema and serious European historical drama.
