Black Book (2006) Synopsis

Dutch VIP Van Gein, who has excellent German connections, runs a countryside escape route, mainly used by Jews who have been hiding themselves and considerable valuables. A boat full of them is suddenly raided by the Nazis. Rare survivor Rachel Stein joins fellow Jew Gerben Kuipers's spectacularly successful Amsterdam resistance, which includes champion sharpshooter Hans Akkermans. She volunteers to gain entrance to the Nazi HQ by seducing a high officer. Several dangerous games of cat and mouse ensue, exacting bloody tools on both sides. Ultimately traitors are found out, but not necessarily in time.—KGF Vissers
