“We need to make an attempt to understand how and why such horrors happened if we are ever to be able to stop them occurring again.” — Laurence Rees

Auschwitz: The Nazis and the Final Solution on DVD — the complete BBC six-part documentary series written and produced by Laurence Rees, BAFTA Award-winning BBC Creative Director of History. First broadcast on BBC Two in January 2005 to mark the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau (27 January 1945), the series offers a unique and definitive account of the camp in which more than one million people were murdered.

The series follows the full arc of Auschwitz — from its origins as a place to hold Polish political prisoners, through the Nazi ideology behind the Final Solution, to its development as a mechanised factory for mass murder. It is based on nearly 100 interviews with survivors and perpetrators, many speaking in detail for the first time, interwoven with archive footage, drama reconstructions of key decision-making moments, and specially commissioned computer imagery based on construction plans captured after the war.

Three years of in-depth research, drawing on the world’s leading experts on the period. One of the most important and acclaimed BBC documentary series ever made.
