July, 1944: World War II is raging, and Claus von Stauffenberg hatches a daring plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler and bring his nightmarish reign of terror to an abrupt end. In this documentary, filmmaker Jean-Pierre Isbouts uses rare color footage, elaborate dramatizations, extensive interviews with leading historians, and detailed computer-graphic reconstructions to offer the definitive record of the manner in which these pivotal events played out. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
