'The Keeper' (A.K.A. Trautmann) is a British-German biographical film directed by Marcus H. Rosenmüller and starring German actor David Kross as the goalkeeper Bert Trautmann. Bernhard Carl "Bert" Trautmann (22 October 1923 – 19 July 2013) was a German professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Manchester City from 1949 to 1964.

'The Keeper' tells the extraordinary love story between a young English woman and a German PoW, who together overcome prejudice, public hostility, and personal tragedy. While visiting a PoW camp near Manchester at the end of WWII, Margaret Friar, the daughter of the manager of the local football team, notices young German soldier Bert Trautmann. Her father is so taken by Bert's prowess as a goalkeeper that he gets him out of the camp to play for his local team. Margaret and Bert's love blossoms despite local hostility and resentment of the German PoWs.

In the meantime, Bert's heroics in goal are noticed by Manchester City Football Club. Rather than going back to Germany like nearly all the other camp inmates, Bert marries Margaret and signs for Manchester City. Bert's path to acceptance begins and peaks at the 1956 FA Cup Final when he secures victory for Man City by playing on despite breaking his neck. Yet fate twists the knife for both Margaret and Bert. Alienated and alone, Margaret's and Bert's loyalty to each other will be put to the test once more.
