2022 - Historical Drama - 108 minutes - German - Matti Geschonneck
On January 20, 1942, leading members of the Nazi regime met in a villa in Berlin-Wannsee for a meeting that went down in history as the “Wannsee Conference.” The sole topic on the agenda that morning was what the Nazis called the “Final Solution to the Jewish Question,” the organization of the systematic mass murder of millions of Jews from across Europe. This historically accurate, haunting drama was produced for the 80th Commemoration Day of the Conference.
