Color footage of the Third Reich, drawn from hidden archives and private collections, replaces the familiar black-and-white images of Nazi Germany with something closer to how it actually looked. The film moves from Normandy's beaches to folk festivals, from Wehrmacht atrocities on the Eastern Front to home movies shot at Hitler's mountain retreat. One of Hitler's personal pilots filmed his visits to the front during the invasion of the Soviet Union, and that 35mm color material was later repurposed as Nazi propaganda. The episode also follows Hollywood director John Ford shooting color footage in North Africa, and a camera crew sent by President Roosevelt to record the 1943 Casablanca Conference, where Roosevelt and Churchill demanded Germany's unconditional surrender. Narration threads these disparate sources together chronologically, using color itself as the argument: footage that looks vivid and immediate rather than distant makes the regime's crimes harder to view as ancient history. The result is less a comprehensive account than a collection of striking visual fragments recontextualized.
