BBC Four - Storyville, My Nazi Legacy

Three men travel Europe in search of answers about their families' links to the Nazis.

A Storyville documentary: Human rights lawyer Philippe Sands travels across Europe with the sons of two former senior Nazi officers in this study of history and guilt.

Three men travel together across Europe. For two of them the journey involves a confrontation with the acts of their fathers, who were both senior Nazi officers. For the third, the eminent human rights lawyer and author Philippe Sands, it means visiting the place where much of his own Jewish family was destroyed by the fathers of the two men he has come to know. An emotional, psychological exploration of three men wrestling with their past, the present of Europe and conflicting versions of the truth.

Knowledge, arts, music and culture from the UK and the world.

BBC Four reflects arts, music and culture with an ambitious range of intellectually and culturally enriching programmes, taking an expert and in-depth approach to its subjects.
