This powerful restoration of a U.S. Department of War film about the first Nuremberg trial has been called "haunting and vivid" (New York Times) and "mesmerizing" (Washington Post). The original film was written and directed by Stuart Schulberg in 1948. Although shown across Germany, Schulberg’s film was banned in the United States out of fear it would undermine United States’ support for the Marshall Plan. Sandra Schulberg, the daughter of Stuart Schulberg, worked with Josh Waletzky to painstakingly restore and complete the unfinished American version of the original film.
