A man in his thirties wearing glasses, a blue vest and orange shorts sits on a motorcycle from the 1940s. A woman of the same age, also wearing glasses, holds onto his waist as she sits behind him. They are both smiling and are driving through a sun dappled forest.

About From Hilde, With Love

Berlin, 1942: When heavily pregnant Hilde (Babylon Berlin star Liv Lisa Fries) is detained by the Gestapo, she denies accusations that she aided her lover, Hans (Johannes Hegemann), in transcribing coded transmissions from Moscow. But it seems there’s more evidence against her than she anticipated, given that Hans and many other activists involved in their group, the Red Orchestra, have also been arrested. As Hilde awaits her fate, she reminisces about her involvement with Hans and their joyful romance, the most beautiful summer of her life.

Anchored by an extraordinary performance from Fries, who perfectly embodies a heroine driven by an integral sense of decency and morality, evocatively filmed, Andreas Dresen’s deeply humanistic film is an affecting portrait of love at a time of desperate danger and oppression.
