[first lines]
Narrator: Down this road on a summer day in 1944, the soldiers came. Nobody lives here now. They stayed only a few hours. When they had gone, the community, which had lived for a thousand years, was dead. This is Oradour-sur-Glane, in France. The day the soldiers came, the people were gathered together. The men were taken to garages and barns, the women and children were led down this road, and they were driven into this church. Here, they heard the firing as their men were shot. Then they were killed too. A few weeks later, many of those who had done the killing were themselves dead, in battle. They never rebuilt Oradour. Its ruins are a memorial. Its martyrdom stands for thousands upon thousands of other martyrdoms in Poland, in Russia, in Burma, China, in a World at War...
But it is the way how this documentary tells the historical events. It is as objective as it can be. Of course you have to tell the events happening in Germany with a critical undertone but you also have to critizise the european countries like France and Great Britain that did nothing when the nazis annexed Austria and parts of the chech republic. This objectivity is important because it hits the truth.
