Movies and TvShows featuring "impersonating-an-ss-officer" theme.

Based on a novel, Morituri follows the story of a disgraced officer forced to impersonate an SS officer and embark on a dangerous mission. He must join a German cargo ship, navigate sabotage attempts, and disarm Nazi saboteurs to ultimately complete the secret mission.

The truth is way stranger than fiction,” muses one interviewee in this unbelievable true account of an incredible war time saga. As the Second World War was coming to a close, the US Office of Strategic Services trained and parachuted two Jewish refugees and a German deserter deep into Nazi occupied Austria. Through vivid first-person accounts, re-enactments, archival footage and learned commentary, the film reveals how their efforts disrupted a vital supply route between Germany and the Italian front to bring about the surrender of Innsbruck to Allied Forces. Their unbelievable adventure has a finale that beats any Hollywood movie hands down — but a story so powerful that it became the basis for Quentin Tarantino’s mega hit.
