In January 1946, aged 68, renowned artist Dame Laura Knight takes a life-changing commission as war artist to the Nuremberg Trials.

In a break from painting the Trial, Dame Laura explores the city of Nuremberg.

She meets citizens who have lost everything in the bombing and visits the stadium where Hitler addressed 500,000 people, now home to a baseball team.

Written by Amanda Whittington - based on the diaries of Dame Laura Knight, whose painting 'The Dock' has become a classic image of the Nazi War Crime Trials.
