One of the most important documentary films about fascism by Soviet director Mikhail Romm. Based entirely on newsreel shooting by cinematographers and photographers from Germany, the Soviet Union, the United States, Italy, Britain, and other countries, the film is based on authentic documents from numerous historical archives. The entire film is accompanied by the voiceover of film director Mikhail Romm. With anger and pain, with deep sadness, and at times with a murderous irony, he comments on events, reflects on dictatorships and dictators, on the crowd that submits to them and deifies them, speaking confidentially to the viewer. With his outstanding film, Mikhail Romm truly revolutionized documentary filmmaking.

Year of production: 1965

Directed by: Mikhail Romm Written by: Mikhail Romm, Maya Turovskaya, Yuri Khanyutin Director of photography: Herman Lavrov Music: Alemdar Karamanov Narrator Mikhail Romm
