Heroism after Hours is a 1955 West German anthology comedy film directed by Wolfgang Becker, Erik Ode, Wolfgang Schleif and Fritz Stapenhorst and featuring an ensemble cast. It is in four parts, each portraying a different tale of German soldiers attempting to get home at the end of the Second World War.
