YOUR RATING

Almost 1 million people in 22 countries carried out the unprovoked murder of 11 million innocent men, women, and children.

99% of those responsible were never prosecuted; most were never even questioned.

The Allies knew what their crime was.

The Allies knew where a great many of the murderers could be found - Germany, Austria, Italy, the UK, the USA, Canada, Australia, and numerous countries in South America.

The Allies had an endless wealth of evidence to present to the courts.

The Allies unanimously agreed to prosecute those responsible when they drew up The London Agreement in August 1945.

But, after the late 1940s, these very same Allies did almost nothing.

Essential Viewing

I had always presumed once Joseph Mengele escaped to Argentina that he remained in South America until his death. Not so. The truth about were he went and when and who he visited is truly disturbing. GETTING AWAY WITH MURDERS lays bare many uncomfortable truths - perhaps too many for some, especially those who try to deny that the holocaust ever happened.

Good documentaries tell stories, the best ones are films that the viewer learns from. And there is a lot to take in here. Emotion is overwhelming; anger and shame against compassion and sorrow.

This film really should form part of the school curriculum in the UK and beyond. Everything revealed within it could all so easily happen again, especially now in our post-truth age.

GETTING AWAY WITH MURDERS is essential viewing.
