Adolf Hitler's (Bruno Ganz) secretary Traudl Junge (Alexandra Maria Lara) narrates this story of Hitler's last ten days, which he spent in a Berlin bunker before his suicide in 1945. Hitler's Reich is crumbling, and his mistress Eva Braun (Juliane Kohler) throws parties. Meanwhile, Joseph Goebbels (Ulrich Matthes) and his wife Magda (Corinna Harfouch) contemplate murdering their six children and then killing themselves. Meanwhile, Hitler refuses to leave and, like the others in the bunker, will choose suicide rather than facing the Allies after Germany is defeated.
