Drama The story of the man who brought high-ranking German Nazi criminal Adolf Eichmann to justice.

	Media	Author	Review
		Peter Debruge Variety	"A stiff historical thriller that dramatizes the obstacles that tenacious state attorney general Bauer faced in prosecuting the architects of Auschwitz while Germany’s postwar government was still infested with the same politicians who’d been in power under Hitler."
		Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter	"[The Film] fails to breathe much life into the stuffy, overly complex enumeration of the historical facts that led to Eichmann's arrest (or rather, kidnapping). But what’s much worse is (...) an entirely unconvincing subplot involving the attorney’s alleged homosexuality"
