Daniel Craig stars as Tuvia Bielski, an ordinary citizen turned hero, in this action-packed epic of family, honor, vengeance, and salvation. Defiance is a riveting adventure that showcases the extraordinary true story of the Bielski brothers, simple farmers—outnumbered and outgunned—who turned a group of war refugees into powerful freedom fighters. Tuvia, along with his unyielding brother, Zus (Schreiber), motivate hundreds of civilians to join their ranks against the Nazi regime. Based on a true story and on the book Defiance: The Bielski Partisans by Nechama Tec. (Tricia Spears)
