Axel Corti - Der Fall Jägerstätter
Thursday 8 May, 2008, 6:30pm
Austrian Cultural Forum London
Filmed in 1971, Axel Corti’s dramatized, very cinematic portrayal of the life of Franz Jägerstätter (superbly played by Kurt Weinzierl) is one of the finest of its kind. Jägerstätter, a conscientious objector and devout catholic, was executed by the Nazis in 1943. In 2007 he was beatified.
