The Great Escape: The Reckoning

Monday, November 2 on 4

The Great Escape is one of the most celebrated stories of World War II, and the subject of an iconic film. Of the 76 Allied airmen who famously escaped, all but three were recaptured. Fifty of them were then shot dead by the Gestapo, in a flagrant breach of the Geneva Convention. This new documentary tells the largely unknown, yet incredible account of what happened next. This is the story beyond the Hollywood legend: the remorseless hunt throughout Europe for the men who murdered the Great Escapers. Featuring interviews with WWII experts and escape survivors.
