A new twist on the historic Nazi concentration camp movie, "The Counterfeiters" is about a group of Jewish prisoners hand-picked by the Nazis for their specific skills to create and print millions of counterfeit British pound notes.
Salomon Sorowitsch (brilliantly played by Karl Markovics) is a master forger who leads his conflicted comrades to give the Nazis what they want without giving them everything.
Based on actual events, this is a dramatic war movie that shows the inner conflict at work in a group of prisoners stuck in an ethical quandary over how the cost of their survival might cause the deaths of many others.
Rated R. 99 mins.
