Скачать или смотреть Germany's Billionaire Families: How BMW, Dr. Oetker & Others Hid Their Nazi Past

Why do some of Germany's most recognizable brands have a past they would rather keep hidden? This investigation delves into the dark, secret history of Germany's wealthiest dynasties and their deep-seated connections to the Third Reich.

We explore how the families behind iconic companies like BMW (the Quandts), Dr. Oetker, and Bahlsen, along with the powerful von Finck dynasty (Allianz, Munich Re), built their fortunes. Discover their direct involvement in funding the Nazi party, their use of thousands of forced and slave laborers from concentration camps, and their participation in "Aryanization"—the seizure of Jewish-owned businesses.

More importantly, this documentary examines how these industrial titans escaped justice after World War II, were often classified as mere "fellow travelers," and then spent the next 70 years silencing investigations and whitewashing their own history. This is the story of immense wealth, a dark legacy, and the fight over Germany's "culture of remembrance."
