This is a collection of unique footage of the proceedings of the Volksgerichtshof, the “Nazi Peoples Court”, which was specifically set up for political enemies.
In these 7 parts who will find comprehensive footage of the proceedings after the failed attempt of officers and civilians to kill Hitler on 20th July 1944.
I post these clips so that their memory won’t be forgotten. These people had a conscience and were incredibly brave. They are role models for all of us. They knew that the failure of their actions would lead to death, but their aim was to prevent to total distruction of Germany and to end the unspeakable crimes of the Nazi Regime.
I am afraid that all this footage is in German language. However, there are other clips on youtube on which the ravings of Roland Freisler, Hitlers “blood judge”, are translated.
However, these clips contain much more footage than was ever shown on youtube and outside Germany. This film is a real treasure for anybody who is interested in the actions of the men and women of the 20th July 1944 and the proceedings of the Nazi Peoples Court (Volksgerichtshof).
Please look up further details in Wikipedia.
