Starfighter (2015)
Germany in the "Swinging Sixties": the Bundeswehr is equipping itself with the ultra-modern "Starfighter" fighter jet. The air force pilots, including the daredevil Harry and his buddy Richie, are the stars of the armed forces. But the fascination with the fastest fighter jet in the world is offset by a dramatic series of accidents: Pilots crash to their deaths in the "Starfighter" one after the other. Officially, the disasters are attributed to human error. But Harry's wife Betti doesn't believe this - and after another serious accident, she takes up the fight against a seemingly overpowering alliance of politics, the military and business, supported by her friend Helga...
