Dead Men's Secrets – Whatever Happened to Raoul Wallenberg?

Movies
Produced for The History Channel, the film exposes the tragic fate of Raoul Wallenberg, a Swedish diplomat posted in Budapest at the height of the Third Reich. Using his diplomatic standing to issue immunity passes he was not authorized to grant, he saved thousands of people from the gas chambers. But he disappeared in 1945, never to be seen again. The documentary seeks to answer important questions: did the Nazis he thwarted for so long kill him? Did he escape death but feel compelled to hide from the evil he had defied? This episode follows the trails uncovered by his family, researchers and governments in the search of the truth.
