LatestOn November 22, 1942, the agony changed sides. Marshal Manstein did not succeed in loosening the vice of the Red Army. In spite of an airlift, Paulus no longer receives the food and ammunition he needs. Hitler wants him to commit suicide. Instead of killing himself, the marshal surrenders. The entire Soviet people are the architect of this victory. The course of war has changed.
The noisy commemoration, celebrated by the Germans in 1993, reached a peak. It was only a question of reconciliation between the adversaries of yesterday and reciprocal pardon. Very laudable intentions which perhaps conceal a memory problem. And if, to too much want to turn the page, the Germans did not come to lose their memories? If history, covered by noise, became mute? If the faults were changed into "details"? The grandchildren of the combatants react in front of the camera to the evocation of these questions and to the spectacle of the vast market of commemorations.
