I saw this docu several years ago and until this day I have never seen a better documentary. Detailed reports with many survivors, Russian as well as German and even civilians who still lived in Stalingrad during this terrible battle.
The true power of this documentary are the survivors. When a certain German soldier told his story how he was able to get out of this hell on earth (wounded) he told it with so much heart and soul when he cried, I cried.
This may sound silly but it moved me in a way a docu never had done before. It puts back the Humans in the story... not just The Evil Germans or The Brave Russians (as seen in many documentaries) no it shows the human horror, the pain, the hunger the sorrow...
If you have the chance to see it DO IT... I was lucky because the Dutch TV broad casted this 3 part masterpiece. And if anybody knows where I could get in (in the Netherlands) PLEASE HELP ME OUT. I want to show parts of this when I become a teacher(2 more years of school)THNX ! And to all the survivors who worked on this: Thank you for shedding a (your) human light on this horrible war which, I see daily, many children forget or don't care about anymore, this makes a difference.
