Council of the Gods
This 1950 East German propaganda film claims that criminal industrialists in league with American oil executives profited mightily from WW2, and after the defeat became the 'corrupt' basis of Democratic West Germany. Fascinating claims in a cleverly rigged melodrama ... with enough truth to be disturbing. Accompanied by some eye-opening propaganda newsreels. First Run Features.
