“The Savage Peace” uncovers the shocking brutality inflicted on the vanquished, particularly targeting ethnic Germans who had resided peacefully for generations in neighboring nations. Through the use of rare and previously unseen archival footage, this documentary unfolds a distressing narrative of retribution against German civilians, echoing some of the most brutal acts committed by Nazi occupiers during the war. The film features exclusive accounts from eyewitnesses and victims, who recount the atrocities with vivid precision, their memories as sharp as ever even 70 years later. This is a narrative that has remained untold amidst the rightful celebration of the end of an unspeakable tyranny. However, as writer George Orwell noted, the treatment of the defeated Germans was a grave injustice that has yet to be addressed.
