Synopsis
"My father died suddenly. In his papers, I found hundreds and hundreds of photocopies in a plastic bag; letters written by Heinrich Himmler to his wife, photographs, and a diary, written by Gudrun, Himmler's daughter. My father had told me a story; about a man who discovered an incredible collection of Nazi documents, all completely unknown. The man had shown him the originals 25 years earlier. That was all I knew. And I was already fascinated." Serge Elleinstein
