Barbarossa (S01E02)

On June 22, 1941, Germany initiated Operation Barbarossa, a brutal assault on the Soviet Union aimed at annihilating the Red Army and wiping out its citizens. Hitler's ambition to conquer Moscow seemed within reach, but both Stalin's forces and the harsh elements had different ideas. Recently colorized footage and amateur home videos offer a rare glimpse into this horrific clash, as the Nazi war machine carved a devastating path through history in what became the most lethal campaign ever waged.
