“Resistance has a code name”
HistoryThrillerWar
In December 1941, Czech soldiers Jozef Gabčík and Jan Kubiš parachute into their occupied homeland to assassinate Nazi officer Reinhard Heydrich.
VIBE
This is a relentlessly grim and tense historical thriller, steeped in the suffocating atmosphere of occupation and the desperate courage of those who resist. It feels like a slow, deliberate tightening of a knot, building to harrowing, high-stakes moments. A somber, propulsive journey through duty and sacrifice.
