Since it’s based on a true event, unless you have your head
buried in the sand, you’ll know the outcome, or at least the end

entourage of high ranking officers and political officials in a
coup-de-tat to bring down the Fuhrer, disrupt his chain of command,
and assume control of Berlin, thanks to quite a contingency
strategy that Hitler had. If it had been successful, history would
turn out rather different, but we are where we are now. So what
makes it still a compelling story to sit through?
