FLORIDA PREMIERE
Immediately following the Feature film, the 45-minute documentary by author and producer Jörg Müllner examines how millions of people were murdered and what role the meeting at Großer Wannsee on January 20, 1942 played in it.
The minutes of the meeting are of central importance: they reveal how openly and clearly the planned murder of millions of Jews in Europe was discussed in the group of participants. The historically unique document is now - well secured - kept in the political archive of the Foreign Office and belongs to a file with the heading "Final solution to the Jewish question". It contains around 300 documents on the so-called "Jewish policy" between 1939 and 1943. The minutes of the Wannsee Conference are of particular importance. It was considered a "Secret Reich matter" - the highest level of secrecy in the Nazi state. Of the original thirty copies of the protocol, only one survived the war.
Sponsored by Carol & Ed Kaplan and Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County.
