While perusing the National Archives I came across this film about the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps by the US at the end of the Second World War. It was at once repulsive and fascinating. It is an in your face look at the ultimate horror. We get A view of the aftermath of large scale mechanized slaughter of countless numbers of innocent people, and the shattered survivors. Below is a breakdown of what the film contains
