Summary. During World War II, German Colonel Claus Von Stauffenberg (Tom Cruise) is severely wounded in Africa and returns home to Nazi Germany. Stauffenberg helps conceive Operation Valkyrie, a plan approved by Adolf Hitler which, in order to manage turmoil within Germany, would implement a shadow government in the event of the Nazi Fuhrer's death. The Colonel eventually joins the German Resistance and becomes part of the July 20 plot, a conspiracy to Assassinate Hitler and execute Valkyrie in order to take control of the country and make peace with the Allies. Stauffenberg finds himself taking on not only the responsibility of leading the coup, but also the task to assassinate Hitler himself.
