Sophie Scholl: The Final Days — Germany
February 18 1943 — Sophie and Hans Scholl distribute White Rose leaflets in the university atrium and are caught by a caretaker.
Sophie Scholl's final act before arrest was to push a remaining stack of leaflets off the atrium balcony — watching them flutter down as an act of defiance. She and Hans were arrested within minutes. The White Rose had distributed six different leaflets calling for German resistance to Nazism.
