Hatred drowned by weakness

Fritz Bauer was a public prosecutor in Germany in the 50s, specialiced in bringing down escaped nazi officers from WWII. It didn't help that he was a gay jew and the government office was still occupied by nazi symphatizers. He's still determined to do justice with his new enthusiastic and naive assistant and the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad to capture the notorious Adolf Eichmann and that, in turn, would reveal more war criminals still walking free. An excellent film of Germany's path towards democracy and its citizens ordeal to meet with responsibility.
