Fatherland (1994 film)


Rutger Hauer Miranda Richardson Peter Vaughan Jean Marsh

In the prologue, the failure of the DDay invasion forces the United States to withdraw from the war in Europe and Dwight D. Eisenhower to retire in disgrace. The US continues the Pacific war against Japan and wins. In Europe, Germany invades the United Kingdom, resulting in King George VI and the rest of the British Royal Family fleeing to Canada in exile with Edward VIII regaining the British throne. British Prime Minister Winston Churchill also goes into exile in Canada and lives there until his death in 1953. German society is largely clean and orderly at least on the surface with the SS reorganized into a peacetime police force.Germany, which has corralled all European countries into a single state called Germania, is embroiled in an endless guerrilla war with the USSR, still led by the 85 yearold Joseph Stalin, which lasts well into the 1960s. The 1960 election of US President Joseph Kennedy gives the Nazi leadership a chance to secure a better understanding with the U.S. In 1964, as Adolf Hitlers 75th birthday on Aprilapproaches and President Kennedy heads to Germania for a summit meeting, the nation opens its borders to U.S. media. ........
