I recently watched this BBC show from the 80’s, POW drama. “Colditz”.
The kommandant of the camp is a very sympathetic, but patriotic, older Wehrmacht officer. I think the show portrayed pretty well how the Wehrmacht had their own honour which definitely clashed with the Party. He has to navigate morals and following orders, but is a very upstanding man.
Like I’d have loved to have had a dad like that.
It’s not based completely on reality, but several of the characters are based on real ones. So not as accurate as Chernobyl for instance, but some truth to it. Perhaps more like Rogue Heroes.
I suggest the show, but some younger people prolly will find it too slow and stale.
