Heinrich Himmler

He was Hitler's most feared henchman and his willing executioner. But in the last days of the war Hitler discovered that Himmler had been plotting behind his back. The faithful Heinrich had offered peace to the West. To Hitler, it was "the most shameful betrayal of history".

Adolf Eichmann

The dark heart of the Nazi holocaust, Treblinka was an extermination camp where over 800,000 Polish Jews perished from 1942. Only two men can bear final witness to its terrible crimes, one of which would appear in the sensational trial of Adolf Eichmann in 1961. This film documents their amazing survivor stories and offers new insights into a forgotten death camp.

This is the dramatic story of ‘Bureau 06’, the team of police investigators formed for the intent purpose of investigating and preparing the grave charges brought up by the Jewish people against Adolf Eichmann, for the trial that took place in Jerusalem in 1961. The program tells the unique stories of the investigators, their hardships and the emotional turmoil they experienced. Among them is the story of Avner Less, Adolf Eichmann's personal interrogator, who spent more than 275 hours questioning Eichmann. (From Israel, in Hebrew and German) (Documentary) (Rpt) PG CC
