Sophie Scholl - The Final Days
The true story of Germany's most famous anti-Nazi heroine is brought to life. Julia Jentsch (The Edukators) stars in a luminous performance as the fearless activist. Armed with long-buried historical records of her incarceration, director Marc Rothemund expertly re-creates the last six days of Sophie Scholl's life: a heart-stopping journey from arrest to interrogation, trial and sentence. In 1943, as Hitler continues to wage war across Europe, a group of college students mount an underground resistance movement in Munich. Dedicated expressly to the downfall of the Third Reich war machine, they call themselves the White Rose. One of its few female members, Sophie Scholl, is captured during a dangerous mission to distribute pamphlets on campus with her brother Hans. Unwavering in her convictions and loyalty to the White Rose, her cross-examination by the Gestapo quickly escalates into a searing test of wills as Scholl delivers a passionate call to freedom and personal responsibility that is both haunting and timeless. The film received three Lolas (German Oscars) including the Audience Award and Best Actress Award to Jentsch for her portrayal of the title role. The film also won two Silver Bears for Best Director and Best Actress at the 2005 Berlin International Film Festival.
Heathrow is the world's busiest international airport, with a constant procession of airliners using both its main runways and a huge programme of development to continue to meet the needs of 21st Century passengers. With the kind co-operation of BAA Heathrow, this programme went airside to bring you airliner action from around the ramps and right by the runways. New colour schemes on major carriers, plus one-off special liveries like the Lufthansa retro look A321 and Malaysia's 'Hibiscus' 747 all add to the experience. Heathrow's huge freight facility is also featured, with a JAL Cargo natural metal 747 400F being unloaded and other cargoliner action. Terminal 5, the new Control tower and a look behind the scenes at Airfield Operations combine with constant airside airliner action to create a wonderful record of today's Heathrow.
