Feuertaufe. Der Film vom Einsatz unserer Luftwaffe im polnischen Feldzug

Summary

An inhuman and revisionist propaganda montage, staging the invasion of Poland as a heroic, triumphal procession of the German air force (Luftwaffe). Produced with formidable technical flourishes, the film fully connotes the National Socialist program with the Polish sacrifice in the war of aggression. The spectacular aerial shots of the surface bombardments function simultaneously as a technologist orgy: thus, the film above all, from today′s point of view, delivers a cynical as well as illuminating evidence for the inhuman NS military doctrine.
