The Odessa File -- A German journalist attempts to track down Nazi war criminals in this top-notch suspense thriller starring Academy Award(r) winners Jon Voight (Best Actor, 1978, Coming Home) and Maximilian Schell (Best Actor, 1963, Judgement at Nuremberg).

The year is 1963. The place: Hamburg, Germany. An elderly Jewish man commits suicide, leaving a diary which falls into the hands of a freelance newspaperman, Peter Miller (Jon Voight).

Miller launches a personal manhunt to track down Roschmann, an investigation that leads him into the very heart of Odessa, a powerful secret organization formed by the SS to protect and re-establish its fugitive members throughout the world. When Miller finds Roschmann, he learns that the former Nazi is now the leader of a weaponry complex of international, strategic consequence.
