What It’s Like to Be the Child of a High-Ranking Nazi – The exclusive trailer premiere for What Our Fathers Did: A Nazi Legacy. | Vanity Fair

What if you grew up as the child of a mass murderer?” That’s the provocative, unsettling question posed in this exclusive first trailer for What Our Fathers Did: A Nazi Legacy, a new documentary from director David Evans and human-rights lawyer Philippe Sands, who was inspired to write the film after researching his grandfather’s own escape from the Nazis. Even more than 70 years after the end of World War II, the film makes it clear that the impact of Nazism for Germans—and particularly for the children of Nazi officials—is far from over.
