The Great Shock
Summer 1943: Hitler wants to turn the tide of the war. The brand-new armored vehicles he has been waiting for a long time are finally gathered at the Ukrainian border, in Kursk. They are ready to destroy the Soviet forces. And so begins the biggest tank battle in history: a slaughter of iron and blood.
The Final Act
January 1944: The German army is crumbling on every front. As they flee, the German soldiers destroy the evidence of their heinous crimes. It is not enough to conceal the macabre reality of the death camps to the Red Army advancing in Reich territory. At the Berghof, the Führer’s inner circle is too busy celebrating the wedding of Eva Braun’s sister to see the Allied landing coming, surprising all German predictions.
