Bonhoeffer: Agent of Grace
“A true story of love, courage, and sacrifice.”
Synopsis
The film tells the story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a distinguished German clergyman who actively opposed Hitler and the Nazis. His strong convictions ultimately led to his death. The Nazis hanged him on April 9, 1945, less than a month before the war ended. The film dramatizes Bonhoeffer's final years, his involvement in the German resistance, and his moral struggles. More than a biographical portrait, the film highlights the lesser-known efforts of the German resistance. It introduces a wide audience to Bonhoeffer's heroic rebellion, portraying him as a respected Lutheran minister who, despite having opportunities to remain silent and save his life, chose to pay the ultimate price for his beliefs.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 22
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
