The Last Note (2017) Synopsis

On May 1, 1944, against the backdrop of the Nazi Occupation of Athens, two hundred proud inmates of the gloomy Chaidari prison met their fates in the blood-stained shooting range of Kaisariani. Among the patriotic Resistance fighters, Napoleon Soukatzidis, a polyglot Cretan of Asia Minor descent and reluctant interpreter of the camp's German commander, Karl Fischer, found himself before a pressing dilemma that would threaten to shake his fervent beliefs. And, in retaliation for the murder of a high-ranking German official and his escorts, two hundred men died a horrible death. But it is sweet and fitting to die for the homeland.—Nick Riganas
