Special programme "Shoah"  

Can you imagine what it meant to grow up as the child of a mass murderer? Hans Frank and Otto von Wächter were indicted as war criminals for their part in World War Two – Nazi Governors and consultants to Hitler himself, the two are collectively responsible for thousands of deaths. Their sons – Niklas Frank and Hors van Wächter – experienced life differently, and hold polar-opposite views from the men who raised them. Through a series of conversations with Nikolas and Hors, the characters lying underneath the infamous criminals are being explored – their patriarchal influence and the price of forgiveness. This film gives a unique perspective on father and son relationships, and brings new meaning to the ties that bind us.
