- Summary:
- It is the winter of 1942-43; the place: Stalingrad. Despite heavy losses, Hitler's Wehrmacht troops have conquered Stalingrad, though they are encircled by the Russian Army. This is the story of a German lieutenant who realizes that war is senseless and there is little hope for a final victory. This film also contains original war footage and German Newsreel clips that blend together to form a picture of the last desperate days of the most important battle of World War II.
