Warning: Spoilers
A brilliant episodic chronicle delving into the rise and collapse of the Third Reich. Archival footage and conversations with unrepentant Nazis and survivors of the atrocities ordered by Adolph Hitler. It seemed the German people wanted a strong man offering something to fear. Hitler himself endured a process that made him the voice of a nation. Slowly but surely brutality spawned respect, but who knew about the eventual mechanized extinction of an entire race? Jews of several nations suffered squalor, poverty, humiliation and death during the rein of Hitler. Light is shed on how ordinary people became murdering minions. Order became disorder within the German army during the darkest hours of defeat. 70-year-old men and pre-teen boys were armed and commanded to fight to the end. Small children were put to work making hand grenades. This comprehensive documentary brings to light little known facts about the war and propensity of a mad man; the wiles of a mass murderer.
