This is finally out on a US DVD release. This is the German-made 2004 version of the Tom Cruise opus. Interestingly, the Weinstein brothers (producers of Valkyrie) bought the rights to this prior to the Cruise version coming out.
The US version can be seen in German w/ english subtitles, or dubbed into english. It is only 92 minutes long, but my understanding is that it was made-for-tv, so we could be seeing a cut-down version.
Koch was excellent in the role. He was the SS Officer (Munze) in "Black Book", and was the lead in "The Lives of Others." However, like Cruise, he was too old for the role. (Personally, I would have like to see Thomas Kretschmann play Stauffenberg).
