  Considered one of the most modern and experimental films in DEFA's history the eccentric Gleiwitz Case also scripted by Wolfgang Kohlhaase is a detailed reconstruction of the 1939 surprise attack by a Nazi unit on the radio station at Gleiwitz a German town on the Polish border. The attack blamed on Polish forces served as Hitler's justification for marching into Poland-thus starting World War II.
