Documentary produced in Germany from a collection of over a million feet of captured German film. This is a grim and unflinching account of the Nuremberg trials, told almost totally without editorial comment. During the trials, the courtroom was dominated by a large motion picture screen upon which the prosecution showed films of Nazi atrocities. Much of this footage was confiscated from the private libraries of high Nazi officials and, ironically, proved to be the most damning evidence against them. Excerpts of these films are intercut with the trial sequences to match the four counts of the indictment against the defendants. Working originally with more than a million feet of film, Pare Lorentz and his staff edited this material into an absorbing historical narrative showing the rise of Hitler, the subjugation of most of Europe - and the systematic murder of millions of innocent people.
