Beyond the Myth - The SS Unveiled

Beyond the Myth - The SS Unveiled (2022)

EndedDocumentary showHistory

The SS was the Nazi state's instrument of domination and oppression, responsible for the intelligence services and the police. The SS committed a horrific range of atrocities, including the Holocaust, the persecution of political opponents, and brutal war crimes. Millions of people were victims of the Schutzstaffel, and many of the perpetrators were unrepentant to the end.

This six-part documentary provides a comprehensive overview of the SS, describing how a small group of thugs rose to become the most feared organ in the Nazi state. With the help of international experts, the film examines common myths about the organisation. Interviews with eyewitnesses and unapologetic perpetrators take us closer to the psyche of the SS supporters in an attempt to make the inconceivable comprehensible.

Unrepentant: The SS and Its Myth After 1945

The sixth episode draws a line to the present. The myth of the SS has lived on after 1945. Many Nazi perpetrators fled to exile unscathed with the help of the Vatican or the US intelligence services. Yet some did not escape punishment and were forced to confront their responsibility. Although the atrocities of the SS are beyond all doubt, among current far-right groups, there is a cult surrounding “old comrades” and SS symbolism.
