- So akribisch wie sie ihre Massenmorde geplant und durchgeführt hatten, gingen die nationalsozialistischen Machthaber dabei vor, die Spuren ihrer Verbrechen zu beseitigen. Wie systematisch die Bürokraten vorgingen und wie grausam und unmenschlich sie dabei vorgingen, ist bis heute ein weitgehend unbekanntes Kapitel Kriegsgeschichte. Genauso akribisch wie sie ihre Massenmorde geplant und durchgeführt hatten, gingen die NS-Täter dabei vor, die Spuren ihrer Verbrechen zu beseitigen. Hatten sie beim Vormarsch in den Osten zunächst die Opfer ihrer Hinrichtungen einfach in Massengräbern verscharrt, so fürchteten sie - nachdem der Krieg für sie verloren schien und nach der Gegenoffensive der Roten Armee -, dass ihre Gräueltaten entdeckt würden. Wie systematisch die "Bürokraten der Massenmorde" darangingen, ihre Spuren zu verwischen, und wie grausam und unmenschlich sie dabei vorgingen, ist bis heute ein weitgehend unbekanntes Kapitel der Geschichte des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Viele Angehörige der damals getöteten Juden, Sinti und Roma, der Partisanen oder einfachen Zivilisten warten bis heute auf eine Nachricht über den Verbleib ihrer Verwandten, hoffen noch immer zumindest auf eine würdige Gedenkstätte. Der Dokumentarfilm begleitet einerseits die französische Organisation Yahad-In Unum bei ihren Recherchen in der Ukraine und folgt andererseits dem Enkel eines der Täter bei den Nachforschungen über seinen Großvater, einen ehemaligen Angehörigen der SS. Beide sind im Raum Lemberg unterwegs. Die Rechercheure von Yahad-In Unum versuchen, Schauplätze von Massenerschießungen und noch lebende Augenzeugen zu finden. Dabei entstehen auch Porträts der Mitarbeiter um den Gründer und Inspirator, den französischen Priester Patrick Desbois. Der Hamburger Vertriebsleiter Rüdiger Schallock folgt den Spuren seines Großvaters, des SS-Untersturmführers Walter Schallock (1903-1974), dessen Taten bis heute als dunkler Schatten auf der Familie lastet. "Transgenerationelle Traumatisierung" nennt das die Wissenschaft heute.

- The "Battle for Moscow" began 80 years ago in October. The Wehrmacht tried to take Moscow. The film tells the story of a fateful year - Moscow 1941, when the survival of the Soviet capital was on the knife's edge - when the war front approached ever more threatening. The film tells from a perspective from which the epochal drama has never been seen: a chorus of voices from Moscow, official and private statements recorded in letters, statements, but above all diary entries. They reflect everyday Moscow life in the last months of peace and in the first months of the war. Experiences, feelings, moods, hopes and expectations, worries, fears and fears. Diaries provide valuable historical evidence Private notes and letters in the Soviet Union were often destroyed by their authors or by family members. For fear of searches, arrests, confiscation or theft. Anyone who wrote made himself suspicious. The few diaries that have survived to this day are all the more valuable. Amazing historical and psychological evidence. A wealth of observations, thoughts and reflections, often of high narrative quality. What was it like in Moscow when preparations for the Barbarossa company were in full swing in Berlin? How did the city respond to the news of the German attack on June 22nd? And the days after that - with the enemy bombing raids and vague reports from the front? And how was it in the Soviet metropolis on October 16, when the situation at the front seemed hopeless and it was said: "Save yourself, who can"? Until finally, on November 7th, Stalin appeared before the people with a persistent speech. The Soviet counter-offensive began a month later.
