I Am von Höfler - Variation on Werther, Part 1
Family saga, which began 250 years ago. The family belonged to the aristocracy and owned a leather factory in the city of Pecs in southern Hungary. Tibor Höfler, the main protagonist, documented the history of the family throughout the 20th century, and it is his films and letters, as well as additional archival material, that give us a look at the story of his life and that of his family—his relations with women, his complex relationship with his son, born out of wedlock, his life during World War II when many of his family members were sent to ghettos and concentration camps, the communist era during which the...

Maly Trostinec
 Through eye-witness testimonies and archival footages, this documentary tells the story of Maly Trostinec, camp and site of mass murder, (12 km) southeast of Minsk, Belorussia. The camp existed since November 41 solely for the purpose of killing and appropriating the remaining possessions of the victims. The camp served as a killing site for the Jews of Minsk and the surrounding area and tens of thousands of Jews from other European countries. Many thousands of Byelorussian civilians, Byelorussian partisans and, most of all, Soviet POWs, were murdered at Maly Trostinec as well. The murder was committed by...

Auschwitz, The Nazis and the Final Solution
Final part in the BBC 6-part documentary series; ‘Liberation and Revenge’ completes the history of Auschwitz. As the end of the war approached, Auschwitz officers tried to hide the evidence of their crimes but were not completely successful. After liberation, survivors searched for their family and tried to return to their prewar homes, but former communities and neighbors did not always welcome them. As evidence of war crimes emerged, some senior SS officers were tried and convicted; others were allowed to resume their lives. Over 4 years, 1.3 million people were sent to Auschwitz and 1.1 million people died...

Auschwitz, The Nazis and the Final Solution
Fifth part in the BBC 6-part documentary series; ‘Murder and Intrigue’ explores the web of international politics spun during the last nine months of 1944. By that spring, the Allies knew about Auschwitz and had the military capability to bomb it. Yet despite the pleas of Jewish leaders, the British and Americans decided not to bomb the railways or gas chambers. During the spring and summer, hundreds of thousands of Hungarian Jews were deported to Auschwitz at a time when the killing machinery had been honed to perfection. That autumn saw a significant act of resistance in Auschwitz, when a group of Jewish...

Auschwitz, The Nazis and the Final Solution
Forth part in the BBC 6-part documentary series; ‘Corruption’ reveals why Auschwitz was unique in the Nazi state as the only site that was both a concentration and an extermination camp. The reason was simple-money. At Auschwitz, the Nazis wanted to kill "useless mouths" instantly and work stronger prisoners to death as slave laborers in places like the nearby IG Farben factory. Meanwhile, the SS profited from the belongings of those they killed-so much so, that in the summer of 1943, an investigation was launched into corruption in the camp and the commandant was removed. Elsewhere, individuals and nations are...

Auschwitz, The Nazis and the Final Solution, part 3: Factories of Death.
Third part in the BBC 6-part documentary series; ‘Factories of Death’ examines the annihilation system that the Nazis spread throughout Europe, with Auschwitz as the hub. It tells why the first transport of Jewish men, women, and children interred at Drancy, outside Paris, were transported to Auschwitz in March 1942 and what happened to the children who were rounded up without their parents. Genocide is being perpetrated not only at Auschwitz, but also at other camps, such as Treblinka, Belzec, and Sobibor. In the final segment, Linda Ellerbee talks with Deborah Dwork, Rose Prof. of Holocaust History at Clark...

Auschwitz, The Nazis and the Final Solution
Second part in the BBC 6-part documentary series; ‘Orders and Initiatives’ highlights the crucial decision-making period of the Holocaust, encompassing the secret plans of Adolf Hitler, Heinrich Himmler, and Reinhard Heydrich. At a conference at Wannsee in January 1942, the participants work toward finalizing their goal-the systematic genocide of an entire people. The first gas chambers are built at Auschwitz and the use of Zyklon B is developed. German doctors arrive to oversee each transport, deciding who should live and who should die. In the final segment, Linda Ellerbee talks with Claudia Koonz, prof. of...

Auschwitz, The Nazis and the Final Solution
First part in the BBC 6-part documentary series, ‘Surprising Beginnings’ (March 1940-September 1941), sets the stage for the series and examines the radical increase in violence against all opponents of the Nazi state during this 18-month period. In particular, the program explores the importance of the German Army's invasion of the Soviet Union during the summer of 1941 and connects this campaign to the first gassing experiments in Auschwitz, which were aimed at Russian prisoners of war, not Jews. In the final segment, Linda Ellerbee talks with Michael Berenbaum, professor of theology at the University of...
