Description

In April 1943 German pastor and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer is arrested and put in prison by the Gestapo.  One year later he sits awake in the middle of the night, thinking. As he awaits his possible execution or release, he must confront his past and the decisions that have lead him into this small cell and away from everyone he loves.  Bonhoeffer in Prison is a dramatic examination of one man’s battle against the darkness around him and the darkness he feels inside.
