Full Plot Details

Based on the 1947 book I.G. Farben, by American author Richard Sasuly, and records from the Nuremberg Trial of the chemical giant I.G. Farben, Council of the Gods is a story about the collaboration between international corporations and Nazi scientists, whose research contributed to the death of millions. Featuring music by Hanns Eisler, electronic sound by Oskar Sala (Hitchcocks's The Birds) and a script by Friedrich Wolf, the film is powerful in its depiction of the moral dilemmas and lessons of the war, as well as of Cold War propaganda. The chemist Dr. Hans Scholz lives through a tortuous political transformation and maturation process. Finally, he becomes wrapped up in his political neutrality and closes his eyes to the fact that poison is being produced in his factory. Standing before the judges at the Nuremberg trials he has to face the fact that he was partly responsible for the deaths of millions in the gas chambers of the concentration camps.

Movie Reviews

User Review - 8/10 by Sakis FGood realistic movie about the dirty untold history of the role business played in the Second World War.
User Review - 8/10 by Dylan WYou can read about what this film is about but it doesn't really capture the weird un-US version of WW2. It mixes German and Soviet takes on the war. The bad guys are all the people in charge of things. The heroes are all working class or pro-union, but in a way that US/western european films about the war never show. Pretty depressing but great to see. It is also really neat to see a paranoid conspiracy film from 1950. It has a nice jab at McCarthy too.
