Plot

In the ominous shadows of Nazi occupation, Walraven van Hall, a dedicated family banker from Amsterdam, finds himself entangled in the intricate web of resistance. Despite the apprehension of his brother Gijs and numerous colleagues, he boldly steps forward to fund the resistance, crafting a scheme of counterfeit credits, underwritten by the promise of a post-war guarantee from the Dutch government in exile. As the relentless war stretches on, Walraven's dedication drives him beyond the boundaries of the guaranteed funds, masterminding a unification of disparate resistance factions. Yet, the ever-watchful eyes of the Germans and their collaborators orchestrate an expansive operation to unravel this 'underground bank'. On the horizon, the looming presence of Allied forces necessitates a larger sum to orchestrate a critical railway strike. But the conventional resources have been drained. Undeterred, Walraven concocts a daring stratagem to siphon funds from the national bank, employing a clever network of forged promissory notes. However, the relentless SS is closing in, their ruthless pursuit threatening to shatter Walraven's audacious endeavor. In the face of extreme peril, The Resistance Banker (2018) charts an unforgettable journey of courage, defiance, and the indomitable human spirit.
