Trailer for WWII-set drama ‘Resistance 1942’; Cary Elwes and Jason Patric lead the cast

Check out this new trailer for an upcoming WWII-set film titled Resistance 1942. The film is set for the US market through Quiver Distribution from 11 November (digital and on-demand).  Cary Elwes, Jason Patric, Judd Hirsch, Greer Grammer and Sebastian Roche are among the cast of the film, which is written and directed by Matthew G. Hill and Landon Johnson.

1942. France is under Nazi control. The Allies have been pushed off the continent and their defeat in North Africa seems likely. Germany’s victory is nearly absolute.

Under this dark shadow, a man named Jacques (Cary Elwes) uses a radio to broadcast a message of hope. He hides in an attic with his daughter Juliet (Greer Grammer) and a small group of fellow survivors (Judd Hirsch, Mira Furlan), playing a deadly game of cat and mouse with the German occupiers.

The world becomes too dangerous when the Gestapo send Captain Klaus Jager (Sebastian Roche) to catch Jacques. As Klaus closes in, Jacques and his small group make a desperate bid to escape their pursuer, trusting themselves to the help of enigmatic Andre (Jason Patric), a Swiss banker.

In the end, that trust may turn out to be the very thing that leads the hunter to his prey.

Check out the new trailer below.
