Hitler and Stalin. Twin tyrants
Description
In January 1913 two men disillusioned with the worlds they live in, anonymously walked the streets of Vienna. Josef Stalin was a young revolutionary exiled from his Russian homeland: Adolf Hitler a penniless failing artist. Who could believe that these two misfits would soon decide the fate of the planet? How did these two men manipulate the political climate of their respective countries to reach absolute power? Why did they send millions of innocent people needlessly to their death? This psychological dual biography exposes the chilling parallels--and the glaring differences--of these two dictators. Among the similarities is that both loved their mothers but disliked their violent fathers, both had loved ones who committed suicide. Among the differences was that Stalin feared all his associates, while Hitler trusted his inner circle. The film features exceptional footage from film archives in Russia, Germany, Eastern Europe, Great Britain and the USA including rare footage of Stalin s mother and of his funeral. Among those interviewed are Stalin s niece, Kira Alliluyeva and Wolf Rudiger Hess, son of Hitler s deputy Rudolf Hess. This fascinating documentary provides new insight into these powerful and bloodthirsty men.
