Summary

Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a German theologian, a pastor, an anti-Nazi dissident, and a spy who took part in an assassination plot against Adolf Hitler. Bonhoeffer, an author himself, has had many books written about his life and now, his story is being told on the big screen. This Thanksgiving, Angel Studios is bringing “Bonhoeffer” to theaters. “The beauty of Bonhoeffer's story is that it shows what a real Christian should be like, and it shows a failed church, so you see both,” Camille Kampouris, one of the film’s producers, told The Daily Signal Podcast. Because of this duality, Kampouris says the film should appeal “to everyone.” Kampouris and her husband, Emmanuel Kampouris, set out to make a film about Bonhoeffer's life a decade ago with the famous last words, “how hard could it be.” Camille and Emmanuel Kampouris join “The Daily Signal Podcast” to share about the long, and sometimes harrowing, journey of making the movie, and what they hope audiences take from it.
