A film series based on Sir Winston Churchill's Memoirs of World War II.

April, 1945, is indeed 'Gotterdammerung' - the 'Twilight of the Gods' - for the Dictators. Mussolini, attempting to flee, meets with a shameful death at the hands of the partisans; and Hitler, believing up till the end that his Reich is invincible, is forced to face the truth and takes his own life. The German generals surrender unconditionally - and the German war is at an end. At last, after six years, the lights come on again, and the whole freedom-loving world celebrates.
