The Keeper is a 2018 British-German movie directed by Marcus H. Rosenmüller. The film tells the story of Bert Trautmann, who is imprisoned in a British camp after being captured at the end of World War II. After having his first successes as a goalkeeper and falling in love with his patron's daughter Margaret, he decides to stay in England. As a German goalkeeper, he plays in the English soccer league and is initially very controversial there - as a German, he is still predominantly perceived as an enemy four years after the end of the war. Trautmann counters that as a soldier he had no choice.
