A French film about Hitler's plan to create a 1000-year Reich peopled with a ' German super race capable of ruling the world.' In 1935 the SS set up Lebensborn for the breeding of the ' new' race. Every young woman of pure blood, married or not, was asked to give the Fuehrer a child, Lebensborn provided the father and the care. It's been estimated more than 100,000 children were born this way but it was not enough. So the SS turned to the occupied territories and kidnapped thousands more children. A film by CLARISSA HENRY and MARC HILLEL
Adapted for the BBC by MARYSE ADDISON and PETER BATE
