Stalin and Hitler: Strange Bedfellows

In this program, a former interpreter for Molotov and Stalin, ex-Soviet agents, eyewitnesses, and historians provide detailed information on the Russian Revolution, the growth of Communism and National Socialism, and the dissolution of the Weimar Republic. Extensive archival footage, a letter from Erich Ludendorff naming Lenin as a German agent, a Soviet spy’s report on Communist agitation in post-World War I Germany, and KGB files on the rearmament of Germany within the Soviet Union redraw the accepted picture of Soviet and Nazi relations.
