Synopsis
Even today, his name inspires horror and hatred. Josef Mengele, the twisted doctor infamous for torturing the prisoners of the Auschwitz concentration camp with his deadly human experiments. After WWII, he was hunted down by the Allies in a 34-year-long manhunt criss-crossing the globe. To no avail…
The story of this manhunt begins in 1945, when the Allies take Berlin. An extensive list of wanted Nazi dignitaries and other torturers is being circled around all of the international intelligence and police services, with the goal of bringing them to court for their crimes.
