September 1939
War erupted in Europe as Germany invaded Poland. Eight
months later, Hitler publicly broadcasted that he would not invade
Holland due to their neutrality during World War I. Within hours,
this promise became a treacherous lie that engulfed the small
country in World War II.
Prejudice and persecution spread. The preservation of
human life became a life-and-death mission for a small minority of
ordinary Dutch citizens.
The Reckoning: Remembering the Dutch Resistance is the
international award-winning documentary that captures the compelling
story and eyewitness account of six survivors in war-torn
Netherlands during World War II. With the revelation of Hitler's
"Final Solution" and the uncertainty of liberation, it reveals the
intensely human aspect of the Dutch struggle against Nazi tyranny.
