No Going Back

Arrested by the Gestapo, Marta uses courage and quick thinking to protect her fiancé, but at a significant cost. Surviving the horrors of Ravensbruck concentration camp through friendship and belief, she must rebuild her life after the war and hopes to reunite with her fiancé. "No Going Back" is a gripping tale that offers a moving insight into one of Europe's darkest periods.

After

Heinz Bauer, a former Gestapo officer, seeks refuge on his family farm as Nazi Germany crumbles, but his past haunts him, and his war-scarred wife, Henni, shuts him out. Amid the chaos of a ruined Germany, Bauer must confront the truth about his actions and decide if he can rebuild his shattered life. "After" is a compelling, fast-paced story of survival, love, and the struggle to find redemption in the aftermath of war.
