Siege of Stalingrad (E05)

Mid-1942, as Hitler’s forces are pushing into southern Russia to take the oilfields, he spies a city prized by his enemy Stalin – Stalingrad. If Hitler can capture this city, he can expand his empire all the way to the Urals. But what Hitler hasn’t counted on is the enormous resilience of the Soviet people; men and women willing to defend their Motherland at all costs. What ensues at Stalingrad is one of the bloodiest battles of the entire war and an event that turns the tide for the Germans. (ZDF)
