Synopsis:
Tough, brutal and utterly compelling, The Fist of the Reich tells the story of one man's fight for survival against the might of the Third Reich. A world champion boxer during the 1930s, Max Schmeling became a symbol of German strength and superiority. But due to his outspoken views he soon lost favour with those in power and was forced to throw off his gloves and don a Nazi uniform. Now he would not only have to fight the enemy but also the battle within as he struggled to maintain his honour in a world fraught with peril. Fearless, uncompromising and forthright to the last, Max Schmeling would seize destiny in his own hands and prove himself to be one of World War II's most surprising yet glorious heroes.
