Caged Birds

By 1980, attorney Barbara Hug (Marie Leuenberger) had made her young reputation in railing against the Swiss penal system, and she'd be handed documentary proof of abuses by a most unlikely contact-the notorious Walter Stürm (Joel Basman), well-born bank robber and multiple prison escapee. Her efforts to get the evidence before a judge-and keep her source out of jail-are recounted in this fact-based effort; Anatole Taubman, Jelle Haase co-star. 118 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: German; Subtitles: English. In German with English subtitles.
