As the Russians
advance through Berlin in the spring of 1945, Adolf Hitler and his remaining
military and secretarial staff shelter in his large bunker complex in the
centre of the city. His mood swings between completely unjustified optimism
that his forces will still break through, and rage against the incompetence and
betrayal of his military commanders. Reality does finally start to break
through and the Fuhrer and the others in the bunker start to make their final
personal preparations for the inevitable.
Brilliantly acted, beautifully shot and utterly gripping.
