Several documentaries have already been made on the Nuremberg trials. But no one has ever been able to enter the prison cells where the accused were held, their only words on record being the testimonies officially given in court.
For the 60th anniversary of the trial's verdict, we take an unprecedented approach, through a programme on the work of American psychiatrist Leon Goldensohn, who, when he was just 34, spent six months in 1946 visiting the prisoners in their cells and whose personal notebooks have just been found and finally published after spending 60 years in a drawer.
The "secret notebooks" are a truly exceptional documents, disclosing for the first time the personal declarations of the Nazis, as stated during the interviews: Goering, Hess, Keitel, Von Ribbentrop, Rosenberg, Speer, Streicher.
