The Silent Revolution
In a small town in Germany in 1956, a group of high school students decide to show their solidarity with the victims of the Hungarian uprising by holding a moment of silence during class. This simple act of defiance against the oppressive regime sets off a chain of events that will challenge their friendships, their families, and their futures.
As the students grapple with the consequences of their actions, they must navigate the pressures of conformity and the desire for individual expression. Their silent protest sparks a debate about freedom of speech, loyalty to the state, and the power of collective action.
Based on a true story, The Silent Revolution is a powerful and thought-provoking film that explores the complexities of standing up for what you believe in, even when it means risking everything.
