Fictional account of what might have happened if Hitler had won the war. It is now the 1960s and Germany's war crimes have so far been kept a secret. Hitler wants to talk peace with the US president. An American journalist and a German homicide cop stumble into a plot to destroy all evidence of the genocide.
Editor's Verdict
"The film is an alternate-history political thriller focused on war crimes and genocide cover-ups. The single piece of evidence suggesting a Christmas connection is the 'Holiday Release' note, which relates to the film's distribution schedule, not its narrative content. There are no discernible Christmas elements in the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution."
