Ruzowitzky">Stefan Ruzowitzky</a>. It fictionalizes <a href="/wiki/Operation_Bernhard" title="Operation Bernhard">Operation Bernhard</a>, a secret plan by <a href="/wiki/Nazi_Germany" title="Nazi Germany">Nazi Germany</a> during <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a> to destabilize the United Kingdom by flooding its economy with <a href="/wiki/Forgery" title="Forgery">forged</a> <a href="/wiki/Bank_of_England" title="Bank of England">Bank of England</a> <a href="/wiki/Pound_sterling" title="Pound sterling">pound notes</a>. The film centres on a Jewish <a href="/wiki/Counterfeit" title="Counterfeit">counterfeiter</a>, Salomon 'Sally' Sorowitsch, who is coerced into assisting the operation at the <a href="/wiki/Sachsenhausen_concentration_camp" title="Sachsenhausen concentration camp">Sachsenhausen concentration camp</a>. </p><p>The film is based on the 1983 Czech-language <a href="/wiki/Memoir" title="Memoir">memoir</a> <i>Komando padělatelů</i> ("The Commando of Counterfeiters") by <a href="/wiki/Adolf_Burger" title="Adolf Burger">Adolf Burger</a>, which was published in English as <i>The Devil's Workshop</i>.

The film won the 2007 <a href="/wiki/Academy_Award_for_Best_Foreign_Language_Film" class="mw-redirect" title="Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film">Best Foreign Language Film</a> Oscar at the <a href="/wiki/80th_Academy_Awards" title="80th Academy Awards">80th Academy Awards</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Plot">Plot</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Counterfeiters_(2007_film)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Plot"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The film begins shortly after the end of the <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">Second World War</a>, with a man arriving in <a href="/wiki/Monte_Carlo" title="Monte Carlo">Monte Carlo</a>. After checking into an expensive hotel and paying with cash, he takes in the high life of Monte Carlo, successfully gambling in a <a href="/wiki/Casino" title="Casino">casino</a> and attracting the attention of a beautiful French woman. Later, she discovers <a href="/wiki/Identification_in_Nazi_camps" class="mw-redirect" title="Identification in Nazi camps">tattooed numerals</a> on his arm, revealing him as a survivor of the <a href="/wiki/Nazi_concentration_camp" class="mw-redirect" title="Nazi concentration camp">Nazi concentration camps</a>. </p><p>The film then flashes back to Berlin in 1936, where the man, <a href="/wiki/Salomon_Smolianoff" title="Salomon Smolianoff">Salomon Sorowitsch</a>, is revealed as a successful <a href="/wiki/Forgery" title="Forgery">forger</a> of currency and <a href="/wiki/Passport" title="Passport">passports</a>. Caught by the police, he is imprisoned, first in a <a href="/wiki/Labor_camp" title="Labor camp">labour camp</a>, then in <a href="/wiki/Mauthausen-Gusen_concentration_camp" class="mw-redirect" title="Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp">Mauthausen concentration camp</a> near <a href="/wiki/Linz" title="Linz">Linz</a>. In an effort to secure himself protection and meagre comforts at the camp, he turns his forging skills to portraiture, attracting the attention of the guards, who commission him to paint them and their families in exchange for extra food rations. </p><p>Sorowitsch's talents bring him wider attention, and he is transferred out of the concentration camp. Brought in front of the police officer who arrested him in Berlin, he finds himself put together with other prisoners with artistic or printing talents and begins working in a special section of the <a href="/wiki/Sachsenhausen_concentration_camp" title="Sachsenhausen concentration camp">Sachsenhausen concentration camp</a> devoted to forgery. The counterfeiters are kept in relatively humane conditions, with comfortable bunks, a washroom and adequate food, although their guards continue to subject them to brutality and insults. His fellow prisoners have a range of backgrounds from Jewish bank managers to political agitators, and while some are content to work for the Nazis to avoid the <a href="/wiki/Extermination_camp" title="Extermination camp">extermination camps</a>, others see their efforts as supporting the German war effort. </p><p>At first, self-preservation appears to guide Sorowitsch, but his motives for forging for the Nazis are complicated by his growing concern for his fellow prisoners, his awareness of their role in the wider war against the Nazis, and his professional pride in counterfeiting the US dollar, a currency he was previously unable to forge. </p><p>Sorowitsch juggles the Nazi demands for progress, his co-counterfeiters' determination to <a href="/wiki/Sabotage" title="Sabotage">sabotage</a> the operation, and his loyalties to his fellow prisoners. The prisoners successfully counterfeit the <a href="/wiki/British_pound" class="mw-redirect" title="British pound">British pound</a> but intentionally delay the forgery of the US dollar. Gradually, the inmates discern slivers of evidence that the war has turned decidedly against the Nazis. One day the camp guards suddenly announce that the printing machines are to be dismantled and shipped away, which leads the counterfeiters to fear that they will finally be killed. Before anything happens to them, the German guards flee the camp in advance of the <a href="/wiki/Red_Army" title="Red Army">Red Army</a>. Starving prisoners from other parts of the camp, armed with confiscated weapons, take over and break into the compound where the counterfeiters had been held in relative luxury. Until the insurrectionists see the well-fed printers' prison tattoos, they believe them to be <a href="/wiki/SS" class="mw-redirect" title="SS">SS</a> officers and threaten to shoot them. The counterfeiters then must account for their forging actions to the half-dead prisoners. </p><p>The film then returns to post-war Monte Carlo, where Sorowitsch, apparently disgusted by the life he is now leading on the currency that he forged for the Nazis, intentionally gambles it all away. Sitting alone afterward on the beach, he is joined by the French woman, concerned after his seemingly disastrous losses at the table. Dancing slowly together on the beach, she continues to remark on all the money he has lost, to which he replies, laughing, "We can always make more". </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2
