Fatherland

1994 NR 1h 46m 6.4

In April 1964, more than twenty years after the Nazis won World War II, S.S. officer Xavier March uncovers a plot to eliminate the attendees of the Wannsee Conference so that Germany can establish better relations with the U.S.

In a world where the Nazis won World War II, Germany has corralled all European countries into a single state called "Germania", and continues fighting against the Soviet Union. It is now 1964 and Germany's war crimes against the Jews have so far been kept a secret. Germany believes that an alliance with the United States would finally beat the Soviet war machine. As his 75th birthday approaches, Adolf Hitler (Rudolph Fleischer) wants to talk peace with President Joseph Kennedy (Jan Kohout). An S.S. homicide detective and an American journalist stumble into a plot to destroy all evidence of the genocide; evidence that could destroy the peace process with America and evidence that Nazi and S.S. leaders will stop at nothing to keep hidden.
