What Was Life Like In Germany Immediately After The Fall Of The Nazis?

from War Stories

In July 1945, a few weeks after Germany’s unconditional surrender, the Western Allies finally entered Berlin. They found a city in ruins, divided into sectors, and under Soviet control. This premium documentary uses rare, high-quality color footage and first-hand accounts to show life in the destroyed capital. From the daily struggle of the "rubble women" to the political tensions at the Potsdam Conference, this film explores how the seeds of the Cold War were sown in the ashes of the Third Reich.
