Ergebnis für "Eine Frau" in Deutschland

Deutschland im Mai 1945. Der Krieg ist verloren: Trümmer und Ruinenfelder, so weit das Auge reicht.

This is the story of Jacqueline, nee Hottinger, one of the most glamorous women in Europe, pre-World War II, a gorgeous, red-haired, temperamental Parisian music hall star who married Kurt Laurentius, from a prominent Berlin family dominant in the German silk trade, an industry that, due to the use of silk in parachutes, would become tied to the world-wide ambitions of Adolph Hitler.

It is sometimes difficult to remember that in war there are innocents on all sides who suffer. German citizens who had no connection to the atrocities committed by their countrymen nonetheless endured great hardships because of them.
