As the Red Army pushed into the Third Reich in 1945, millions of German civilians faced a wave of terror, revenge, and violence. Fueled by years of suffering under the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union, many Soviet soldiers carried out widespread looting, killings, and the mass rape of German women across East Prussia, Silesia, Pomerania, and Berlin.

Historians estimate that up to 2 million German women were raped during the final months of World War II, making it the largest mass rape in recorded history. This documentary explores the brutal realities of the Eastern Front, the Nazi atrocities that fueled Soviet hatred, and the devastating human cost that followed Germany’s collapse.

The film also examines survivor testimonies, the fall of Berlin, Operation Barbarossa, Soviet war crimes, and the long-term trauma suffered by women and families in postwar Germany.
