Hitler's Generals

Image 1 / 6

Conducting a significant analysis of the Nazi regime, ‘Hitler’s Generals’ examines Germany's highest-ranking military officers during World War II: Erwin Rommel, Friedrich Paulus, Ernst Udet, Eric Von Manstein and Wilhelm Canaris. Profiling the rise and fall of the men who aided Hitler in his war of aggression, this compelling documentary poses the question as to why it all happened. What led all these officers to put their military talents at the service of a dictator? To what depth was their involvement in Hitler´s crimes? To what limits did their obedience lead them? This extraordinary series begins with an in-depth look at Rommel, the legendary German General who was known to have openly criticised Hitler's strategic decisions and Manstein, a man with a reserved view of the Nazi ideology but who fearlessly executed Hitler’s war.
