Plot Summary:Late in the 1980s, two documentary film makers found six German men, all in their 60s and 70s, who had been soldiers in the German invasion of the USSR in 1942. Each carried an 8mm camera into battle and they still had their film. "Mein Kreig" alternates between interviews with these older men, now apologetic, philosophical, or defiant about their participation, and the footage they shot. It's chronological: basic training, the train trip East, roof-top vistas of war-torn Warsaw, peasants in Belarus, the downing with carbine volleys of a Russian plane, winter, a holiday at the Black Sea, mud, impassable roads, death, destruction and retreat. "Home, that was the front," one says.
纪录片就是要尽量客观的陈诉再现历史，而不是带有任何偏差的色彩去站在哪一个立场来拍摄，不然就会变成一方的伪善的掩饰和作秀，所以这部非常和我胃口，听听那些德意志少年耄耋之年的心声吧，听听历史洪流中恐遭淹没的声音。
