THE CONFERENCE
The Wannsee Conference: possibly the most terrible conference in human history. In January 1942, high-ranking Nazis met in a villa in Wannsee, Germany, where they planned the “Final Solution to the Jewish Question”- total annihilation of the Jews by systematic mass murder. Produced for the 80th anniversary of the Wannsee Conference, this television docudrama recreates the meeting of 15 top Nazi officials, headed by Reinhard Heydrich. Based on the actual minutes as recorded by Adolf Eichmann.
