Скачать или смотреть 1945: Germany’s Collapse and Hitler’s Final War on His Own People | Full Documentary

The final act of the Second World War is its most costly episode. More than one million German soldiers die in 1945 alone. Before peace comes in May, liberators and the liberated alike must suffer the unimaginable. The last three months of dictatorship and war bring fanaticism and flight, civil courage, delusion, struggle and collapse. The last rebellion of the murderous regime.
At the end of January 1945, Allied armies in both the East and the West stand at the borders of the German Reich. The Red Army conquers land in East Prussia and Upper Silesia, while American troops have taken up positions in Aachen and Alsace and British forces have reached the Ruhr Triangle near Heinsberg. Now it is only a matter of time before the Nazi terror regime succumbs to the oppressive superiority on the ground and in the air.
Yet in this phase, Hitler's regime seems determined to drag as many as possible into the abyss. Fight to the end, is the slogan. Concentration camp prisoners are sent on their final marches, child soldiers die for no military purpose, refugees drown in the Baltic Sea, city dwellers burn in the inferno of the firestorms.
The cause of all this misery is barricaded in his bunker beneath the Reich Chancellery, blaming his people alone for the catastrophe. Adolf Hitler orders the destruction of all basis for life for the German people - so that after he is gone, there would be only the past and no future. After his suicide, he leaves a legacy of scorched earth and battlefields that became mass graves for millions – as well as the terrible discovery of industrialised genocide.
The 60-minute documentary relates the history of these dramatic 100 days, based on the key events, but also revives those scenes that symbolise apocalyptic decay.
