After 216 days in the courtroom, the judges must arrive at their verdicts. And while they wait, the Accused are allowed visitors for the first time.
Seen through the eyes of Emma Schwabenland, an American interpreter who is given the job of organising the Visitors Room.
Upstairs, the eight judges (two from each country) debate the verdicts and sentences – the Russians want everyone found guilty and hanged, other judges take a more nuanced view.
On 30th September 1946, they announce their verdicts.
