It is a War Drama.
In the vein of Top Gun: Maverick
It is like Hacksaw Ridge meets Valkyrie.
It follows bitter German fighter pilot Franz Stigler.
And rookie American bomber 2nd Lt. Charlie Brown.
As Franz seeks a Knight’s Cross by shooting down American planes and Charlie tries to keep his crew alive.
Problems arise when the Americans start bombing Franz’s homeland and Charlie’s plane is heavily damaged by enemy fire.
Together their sense of chivalry, honor and duty will result in one of the most remarkable acts of humanity during World War II.
The idea came to me when I was reading A Higher Call by Adam Makos and it reminded me of my own transformation from viewing all Germans as cartoonish Nazis involving someone named Franz.
My unique approach would be a World War II event told mainly from the German perspective in which Americans are seen as the faceless enemy dropping terror from metal beasts in the sky and our protagonist must come to see them as human.
