Rare Nazi propaganda film found
ALLAN HALL
A NAZI propaganda film showing dramatic footage of a Second World War battle against British forces has been found.
Kampf um Norwegen - or "the Struggle for Norway" - is a rare 80-minute documentary commissioned by the high command of the German army in 1940. It displays ordinary German soldiers as super-heroes as they conquered the country.
It is believed the film was dubbed into English to be screened in the then neutral US and distributed in Portugal, Spain and parts of Africa.
