A film by Gerry Troyna, featuring Steven Berkoff

SYNOPSIS
Herschel Feibel Grynszpan (28 March 1921 — last known to be alive 1943-1944, declared dead 1960) was a Polish-Jewish refugee, born in Germany. His assassination of the Nazi German diplomat Ernst vom Rath on 7 November 1938 in Paris provided the Nazis with the pretext for the Kristallnacht, the antisemitic pogrom of 9th November 1938. Grynszpan was seized by the Gestapo after the German invasion of France and brought to Germany to stand trial.

THE GUARDIAN
'In just ten minutes this brilliant little film...makes history live!'

THE TIMES
'...if there is any danger of a generation growing up ignorant of what Hitler did to the Jews then Steven Berkoff's contribution to this series should be shown in every classroom in the land.'

TIME OUT
'...powerful and hypnotic.'
