Alemania, principios del XVI. Martín Lutero fue un monje agustino que provocó un cisma dentro de la Cristiandad. En el monasterio, una detenida y reflexiva lectura de la Biblia, lo lleva replantearse algunas cuestiones. En 1517, cuelga en la puerta de la iglesia de Wittenberg sus 95 tesis, que, además de negar algunos dogmas, condenaban las bulas de indulgencia que la Iglesia vendía para recaudar fondos para la construcción de la Basílica de San Pedro del Vaticano. Llevado ante la Dieta Imperial de Wörms, Lutero se niega a retractarse, a menos que puedan probar, basándose en la Biblia, que sus tesis son falsas. A continuación es acusado de herejía y excomulgado por el Papa León X. En esta situación se ve obligado a escapar y vive como un proscrito mientras traduce el Nuevo Testamento del latín al alemán. La postura desafiante de Lutero anima a los campesinos a rebelarse contra los señores y a quemar iglesias. (FILMAFFINITY)

The story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German clergyman of great distinction, who actively opposed Hitler and the Nazis. His convictions cost him his life. What is a moral person to do in a time of savage immorality? That question tormented Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German clergyman of great distinction who actively opposed Hitler and the Nazis. His convictions cost him his life. The Nazis hanged him on April 9, 1945, less than a month before the end of the war. Bonhoeffer's last years, his participation in the German resistance and his moral struggle are dramatized in this film. More than just a biographical portrait, Bonhoeffer: Agent of Grace sheds light on the little-known efforts of the German resistance. It brings to a wide audience the heroic rebellion of Bonhoeffer, a highly regarded Lutheran minister who could have kept his peace and saved his life on several occasions but instead paid the ultimate price for his beliefs.
