Whitaker shares his decades-long connection to the real-life story of Helmut Hübener and the resistance group whose bravery inspired the movie. Evans dives into the moral ambiguity of his character, the psychology of “just doing your job,” and how the film explores ideology, complicity, and personal truth. They also talk about Alexei Navalny’s influence on the film’s closing quote, adapting a German-set story for English-language audiences, and the careful decisions around authenticity, accents, and casting. A deep, moving conversation about storytelling, history and the power of truth.
