In the Land of Eagles and Crosses

In the Land of Eagles and Crosses 1981 Directed by Joachim Hellwig Im Land der Adler und der Kreuze

In this documentary, Joachim Hellwig uses partly unpublished footage to shed light on a dark chapter of German history and shows the entanglements between the politicians' claims to power and the interests of industry and business in Germany from the beginning of the First World War to the end of the Second World War (1914 to 1945). The Nuremberg War Crimes and Industrial Trials served as the basis for this documentary.
