All that I am
When eighteen-year-old Ruth Becker visits her cousin Dora
in Munich in 1923, she meets the love of her life, the
dashing young journalist Hans Wesemann, and eagerly joins
in the heady activities of the militant political Left in
Germany. Ten years later, Ruth and Hans are married and
living in Weimar Berlin when Hitler is elected chancellor of
Germany. Together with Dora and her lover, Ernst Toller, the
celebrated poet and self-doubting revolutionary, the four
become hunted outlaws overnight and are forced to flee to
London. Inspired by the fearless Dora to breathtaking acts of
courage, the friends risk betrayal and deceit as they dedicate
themselves to a dangerous mission: to inform the British
government of the very real Nazi threat to which it remains
wilfully blind.
