Though entirely based on "authentic" newsreel materials, this is a splendidly distorted "record" of the Nazi Blitzkrieg against Poland, designed to terrorize (particularly foreign) viewers into accepting the Nazis' god-like military superiority. Kracauer's profound analysis stresses the magic, irrational core of the film, its reliance on graceful over-simplifications, clever amalgams, a pseudo-narration that professes to inform, and insidious comparisons.

The invasion of Poland according to the wrong side. The Nazi side! This is their explanation it to it's people. And based on this, no wonder Germany had to start World War II considering how brutally the minority German's was treated in Danzig. That of course justifies what the Nazi's did to all the other minorities in their Reich. While it's interesting to see things from their point of view, this documentary drags a lot in between the absurdities spewed out by the German narrator.
