Jasenovac - The Truth

A documentary film. This controversial film contends that the extent of the Holocaust in Croatia and the World War two genocide of the country's Serb population was exaggerated through post-war communist propaganda. It focuses primarily on Jasenovac, a concentration camp run by Croatia's wartime fascist Ustaše government where an estimated 100,000 are believed to have perished, but the film suggests that the actual death toll never exceeded 18,000. This lies at the center of the controversy around the film and its director. The film also argues that Jasenovac continued being used as a concentration camp by Yugoslavia's communist authorities well after World War II, and that more inmates perished when it was run by the communists than when it was run by the Ustaše.
