Most of the Germans who supported the 3rd Reich never spoke about their experience again after 1945. In almost every German family, the topic was a taboo: the unspoken.
The film takes a psychological approach to interviewing the subjects in order to show what they exactly thought, felt and did during that time, and how they view their involvement in retrospect. The result is a profound insight into Germany’s collective unconscious and how it has been repressed for decades. The testimonies are painfully honest, startling and unsettling, but sometimes also emotional and touching, and often full of moral ambiguity, from denial and repressed guilt to trauma and grief. We also interviewed German-Jewish survivors to highlight the blind spots that remain even today in the memory of those who supported the regime. The juxtaposition of the two perspectives is particularly revealing, and yields shocking insights.
