In the last months of 1942, only a few yards of bitterly contested ground stood between Hitler and the prize which he valued above all others - Stalingrad. The fighting for Stalingrad was intense, protracted and took place under the worst imaginable conditions, including the iron grip of a Russian Winter. After the battle the wretched survivors of a beaten German army surrendered to the Red Army. They had once been 350,000 strong but only 90,000 of these frost bitten, starving scarecrows remained to make the painful forced march into Russian captivity. In the weeks to come 85,000 of these pathetic prisoners would die from disease, starvation, brutality, neglect and despair. Only 5000 survivors from the doomed 6th Army endured the long years of captivity in slave labor camps and lived to see Germany again. This is their story.

Expert interviews, archival footage and engaging reenactments tell the stories of five of World War II's most colorful heroes.

Maurice Papon, a high-ranking official under the Vichy regime, oversaw the deportation of hundreds of Jews from the Gironde prefecture in 1942. After the war, he enjoyed a prestigious career as a prefect, member of parliament, and minister without ever facing any repercussions. In 1981, the newspaper “Le Canard enchaîné” revealed his role during the Occupation, backed by documents, leading to a complaint for crimes against humanity. After 16 years of legal proceedings, his trial began in 1997. Accused of complicity in the deportation of 1,600 Jews, he claimed he was merely obeying government orders and acting under coercion from the Nazi occupiers, while the prosecution emphasized his conscious responsibility. Sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment in 1998 following a trial lasting more than six months, he was released in 2002 for health reasons. This trial, a belated symbol of the accountability of public officials, continues to fuel reflection on individual responsibility.
