On the morning of January 20th, 1942, in a villa on the Großen Wannsee in Berlin leading members of the Nazi regime came together. SS, Reichskanselli, ministries, police, administration. Reinhard Heydrich had invited them to a "meeting followed by breakfast". This meeting would go down in history as the "Wannsee Conference". The sole topic on the agenda that morning was what the Nazis called the "Final Solution to the Jewish Question": the organization of the systematic mass murder of millions of Jews throughout Europe. The film follows the minutes of this meeting as recorded by Adolf Eichmann, of which only one copy remains, and which is a key document pertaining to the Holocaust. The Conference is a chilling document of beuraucratized evil. (The Norwegian International Film Festival)
