The Ninth Day (2004)

In the turbulent vortex of World War II, Father Henri Kremer finds himself plucked from the horrifying depths of the Dachau concentration camp, where he and his fellow Catholic priests have been enduring an earthly hell. Granted an unexpected reprieve, Kremer is given nine days to return to his native Luxembourg for his mother's funeral. Shrouded in mystery, this temporal liberty is far from an act of kindness. Born into an influential family and blessed with a silver spoon, Kremer is plunged into a psychological battlefield by the calculating SS Gestapo Lieutenant Gebhardt. With the fate of his church hanging in the balance, Kremer is tasked with an unthinkable assignment - persuade the resilient local bishop to surrender resistance to the Nazis and pen a letter to the Vatican. This correspondence, masquerading in the name of the Catholic Church of Luxembourg, must convince the Pope to endorse Hitler and the Nazi regime. Over the course of nine days, Kremer's faith is pushed to its limits as he grapples with his profound dilemma. Torn between his loyalty to the church, his duty to his homeland, and the relentless pressure from Gebhardt, Kremer must navigate this precarious moral maze. Will he succumb to the Gestapo's manipulation, or will his faith guide him through his trials? "The Ninth Day" is a riveting journey into the heart of a priest's struggle, an immersive exploration of faith, duty, and the power of conviction amidst the backdrop of the world's darkest hour.
