Editorial Review:
On January 20, 1942, a conference was held to organize the "final solution" -- the destruction of all eleven million European Jews. This documentary examines extensively the historical background to the conference, dealing with the preceding events methodically and largely chronologically. Eminent Jewish and non-Jewish historians exchange views on the issues that have occupied many people for years: the why's and wherefores, the question of blame and the possibility of a recurrence. Color & B/W

Rating: - The Stern Reality
To avoid atrocities, the mankind should never forget what has happened once, to prevail what might happen again.
Rating: - Excellent historical movie

Rating:  - The Conference
For those who have not read 'Rise and Fall of the Third Reich', this film offers some insights into the establishment of 'The Final Solution'. It should be a precursor to The Holocaust series of dvd's offered by Amazon.
Though some of the statements made seem self-servient, they expose the roots of the most hellish treatment ever to visit a race of peoples.
