- Amidst the chaos following the failed assassination attempt on Hitler, the SS takes drastic action, arresting the family members of the plotters as "prisoners of kin." The hostages face an agonizing dilemma as they are transported across the Alps: flee or hope for a risky rescue. When the convoy reaches Niederdorf on April 28th, 1945, the hostages blend in with the townsfolk, causing the SS's grip to weaken. However, their situation remains precarious as the US army approaches the hotel on May 4th, 1945, leaving the fate of the family members uncertain.

my parents fought against the nazis. my father was in the american army and my mother was smuggled out of Austria when the nazis invaded and sent to England where she joined the british army. She was wounded by shrapnel in London during the blitz. My tiny mom was driving an ambulance in london. She was a tiny lady but a real terror if you crossed her. Truely they were the great generation. I salute them now as a soldier in the us army where I flew as a gunner in the gunships in vietnam. the armpit of the world.
So did my Dad, serving as a bomb loader and armorer on B-26's in Africa, later Sardinia and up into France and finally after the war, stationed in Linz, Hitler's home town in Austria. I have all my Dad's letters he wrote home, and lots of photos, his dogtags, etc. Just yesterday at an antique mall here in FL I found a clean and pressed Army Air Force uniform like my Dad would have worn. It was made of fine wool, and I looked at the sewing and it was very well done. Our men had quality clothes over there at any rate. It just gave me a little heart tug to see that uniform. We owe so much to our fathers and mothers for their determination not to be beaten. I am reading The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich and how Hitler's army was falling apart once it turned on Russia. The cold has always been Russia's best weapon. The Wehrmacht didn't have proper heavy coats, socks, boots -- many cases of frostbite among them, for example. By that point they probably didn't have very plentiful rations either. The generals just could not take their men the final 50 miles to conquer Moscow. When we visited Leningrad a few years ago, we saw a sign, whether in a museum or the main drag, Nevsky Prospekt, saying, "Comrades, use the other side of the street because the buildings will protect you from German shelling." There were still a few holes in walls here and there. Fairly few images of Lenin and none of Stalin.
My husband, a Navy man, told me that Iraq is the armpit of the world. He said the whole area is.
Thank You For your service Sir.
@@jeannelipham2583 that particular sandy hole of the world gets the other A-word designation.
@@jeannelipham2583 Well, don't know what it looks like now but it's the "Cradle of Civlization", ancient Mesopotamia, etc. It's where agriculture, the first written language, Cuneiform was developed. Sumerians Assyrians, Babylonians. Great civilizations of old.
I suspect if one is in a nasty war - wherever it is, it's the armpits of the world.
I have studied the history of WW2 extensively and this is by far the most moving story of the war I have ever seen! Congratulations on this most excellent documentary, well done!
I agree
Leave it to the ww2 Germans to Captivate your full attention on ruling the world.
No way, I was looking for a documentary about this a couple of weeks ago, and here it is! Really looking forward to watching it 👍
Yes, way!
Welcome aboard!
Excellent documentary. Highly recommended.
Such an important story from WW2. It was ruined by the incessant advertisements from CZcams every few minutes .
I've noticed if you cast to your TV there are hardly any ads .
You complain too much.. you are very hard to please. Such an interesting and well put together documentary and you find frivolous things to say!!!
@@bridgettehutton646Some people are just miserable and they usually want to make everyone they come in contact with miserable also. I don't let it bother me any more. I just think to myself, "It must be absolute misery living in your skin." Don't complain, do something about it, like paying for an ad free CZcams experience. But then they would have to find something else to whine about...
Then put your money where your mouth is and pay for Premium CZcams. You're watching an excellently produced video FOR FREE! How do you bear to watch Fox News?
Evan as a viewer of the documentary, the tension before the prisoners were released and the relief following their release was palpable! Colonel von Bonin should have been given a medal for saving the lives of the prisoners. A terrifying but in the end, uplifting film! Henry
Absolutely brilliant. Well made, brilliantly documented and excellent actors. Well done!
This is excellent - what a great find! Such a gripping story and admirably well acted. Gives an insight into the end days of the Nazi regime within one of the many small pockets of its horror but one most of us are unfamiliar with: a disparate, motley crew of victims, adults, children, soldiers, priests, of different nationalities, all thrown together by circumstance and hoping to survive (both the cruelty of the SS & the oblivious Allied bombing from above) Deserves more than 37K views. The title however is a little misleading. Nevertheless, riveting stuff...
Special hostages, special treatments... Special documentary..a thrilled watching .
incredible doco, thanks
This really was a very enjoyable watch. I was totally absorbed in it
Enjoyable to watch??? U are a fricking monster....
Amazing ! Thanks so much for uploading

Thanks for showing it I grew up just after ww2 and it still draws me in I watch docos about it whenever I can
I never knew about this story, how wonderful.
Man the things those Germans did documenting it writing and filming. In a year or two it will be more to be seen and heard.
Amazing, beautifully filmed and precious story. Thank you for sharing this.
I've wondered what happened to the Families of the Conspritors. Thank you for telling their Stories!
I assumed they just disappeared without a trace
Excellent retelling of humanity.
These crimes and wars have been occurring throughout civilization, for various reasons.
The reason being it's all apart of war. How can you not be a civilian and not get caught up in between ⁰
Fantastic production 👏🏻
loved it. great content. keep it up
Great story! Thanks for posting!
This is a brilliant documentary, thank you much for showing this.

What a superb documentary. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing 💜
Thanks for watching!
@@get.factualthank you so much 😊 // sweden
Many thanks for airing this fascinating subject. Rarely if ever covered by other aspects of WW2.
That was excellent, sp much information, thank you for sharing this documentary !!
This was a great story and so well written and reenacted. This documentary was like watching a movie. Thank you so much.
As a keen military historian I thought I knew all the stories from the Second World War. Thank you for proving me wrong. This has been a well told account .
Well documented, almost feels like a movie. U were all so brave. I thank u for your sacrifices, and hope they weren't in vain forever. Not just for generations to come.
I have viewed many a documentary about Germany during World War II. But this one is the best, hands down. Fascinating history and spliendid acting all around.
Great movie, greatly made, greatly acted.
very nice documentary...very touching..
Bogislaw von Bonin saved hostages.
Story's like this brake my heart. Wars make many rich .As long as profits are involved there will be wars. Weapons manufacturers feast on tax dollars and human misery. America is the largest Arms manufacturer in the world. All without a second thought.
Yes great im putting this in my classified files . just in case someone is spying on me 😮 but i will be watching this again
This is very well done - what an incredible story. Hard to believe the range of emotion and physical hardship these folks went through.
A truly wonderful story
Marvelous! Unforgettable! See this movie.
Bravo et merci
Excellent dramatisation.
This Channel deserve A Like and Sub
Amazing documentary
The Shocking things War Brings.
Thank you for this detailed video, a significant tutorial history. " He who doesn't learn from. History is bound to repeat it Dr Maya Angelou."
These are the stories you never hear,
Amazing documentary, there hazardous journey to freedom.
WOW what a movie to watch well done
I have heard that his body is never found
Very interesting video but due to the constant advertisements from CZcams every other minute I can't finish it.
Shusnick was a dictator before Hitler's came in Austria!
I hope with all my being ,that history doesn't repeat itself.
Missleading title but great documentory about others than the the awful stories, it was awful , don't get me wrong, but also about the courage of the survivors , great job !!
3 in the morning and your doors kicked in ,you given minutes to pack with a command of Rouse ,Snell
Same story. I prefer listening to people's personal stories about World War Two because I've heard all the other official stuff.
And the Hollywood remakes, to boot!
All those aggressors are dead now too
Tolle Geschichte und wahr. As they say " The truth is often stranger than phantasies".
I don't quite understand. Why did the wehrmacht go after these ss?
I remember this in that tom cruise movie
Major Rehmer was very bad.
Hardly untold ffs!
Traitors to the fatherland....
Well this was the ‘main one’, wasn’t there 27 or something?
Very sad story in this picture when I listen and see the movie TS coming from my eyes story about 1940 to 1946 very heard story it means very difficult timing goimg and bad story is suffering struggling I am dying till date 🌹 sometimes feel sorry each other sometime rudely history excellent 1945 German lost bhai American Soldier the story about a woman lost her son and daughter many years she found them finally She happy her self thank you for the story❤😂
Wonder how / where they were able to do the re-enactments.
Bader became a policeman....yikes.
Does anyone what became of the Germam officer, Von Bonin after the war ? Was he the only German officer not to have been shot after the attempt on the life Hitler ? I believed that all the officers were executed ?
He wasn 't the member of the German resistance, he only refused a military order Hitler gave and therefore they put him in the concentration camp!
some of this reminds me of big Z in ukraine
It's pootin's ruzzia
What is the actual name of this documentary? The actors are superb!!
@exiledPatriot48 I think it is called Hostages of the SS but I had to search the actors and actresses in the credits to find this. It was possibly a German docu-drama dubbed over with English narration.
😅
😅
not enough ad.//// duh
Cigarettes.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
They where Traitors to The Fatherland
If they were why would the Wehrmacht have assisted them? Hitler was the traitor to the German people.
It's such a tragic loss that Hitler survived.
Bloody adverts
could have been worse... a lot survived the war while mostly what appeared to be sleeping in warm soft beds.
