      abstract = {For three years freelance journalist Michael Schmidt  played a dangerous double game, insinuating himself into  the inner circle of German neo-Nazis. They thought his film  would glorify their movement and its leader Michael Kuhnen.  Schmidt, however, was determined to expose the resurgence  of Nazism in Germany and elsewhere. The result is a  disturbing document of racial and religious hatred being  bred into a new generation. The film brings us into a world  of Nazi uniforms, sieg heil salutes, skinheads, mass  rallies, and secret plots. Violent anti-Semitism is fanned  by the showing of old Nazi hate films, like The Eternal  Jew. Former East Germany is a fertile ground for hatred of  foreigners and Jews since it is in economic and social  crisis. Revisionist historians who deny that the Holocaust  ever occurred have close ties with the party.They coined  the slogan Wahrheit Macht Frei (The Truth Shall Make Us  Free) to parody the Arbeit Macht Frei signs which hung over  the gates of concentration camps. Anthony Hancock, a  printer of hate booklets, and David Irving, author of books  denying the Holocaust, both British, participate with  relish in German demonstrations. This film is a warning to  the world that old hatreds are being rekindled.},
