Resistance 1942 is a tense, WWII-set cat and mouse thriller starring Cary Elwes (The Princess Bride, Mission: Impossible 7), Greer Grammer (The Middle, Awkward), Jason Patric (Wayward Pines, Sleepers) and Oscar nominee Judd Hirsch (Independence Day). It’s 1942, and France is under Nazi control. The Allies have been pushed off the continent and Hitler’s victory is nearly absolute. Deep within this heinous shadow, Jacques uses a radio to broadcast a message of hope. Unbeknownst to him, villainous and relentless Gestapo captain Klaus Jager has been dispatched to catch the illegal broadcast. As Klaus closes in, Jacques, his daughter Juliet, a small group of other dissidents, must learn to trust the kindness of a stranger if they are to stay ahead of their pursuer. Written and directed by Matthew Hill and Landon Johnson.
