Summary
A moving account of Hitler's attempt to destroy European Jewry, this program offers a rare personal perspective. Diaries and poems written by men, women and children in the concentration camps help viewers comprehend the horrors of Nazi Germany-and enduring spirit of those who fought for human dignity throughout one of history's darkest chapters. Viewers hear excerpts from Nazi testimony at the Nuremberg Trial, as Eichmann, Biberstein and others give dispassionate accounts of mass death-and plead 'not guilty' to charges. The program traces a complex historical path of European anti-Semitism and examines increasingly determined persecution of the Jews in Nazi Germany, including the violent turning point of Kristalnacht, and the formulation of the Final Solution
