Surviving Hitler

This is a remarkable documentary with a plot straight out of a Hollywood blockbuster but it is all true! It is longer than the usual I post here on e-clecticism but please take the time to watch it as it is truly remarkable. A German soldier falls in love with a Jewish teenager in Nazi-ruled Berlin. When war breaks out, he sends love letters from the Russian front while her family hides resistance fighters in their home. The young sweethearts become co-conspirators in a plot to assassinate Hitler. When the plot fails, they face almost certain death. Unbelievably, both survive the Gestapo's wrath and they become the first couple to marry in the ruins of post-war Berlin.
