For the first time ever, 81 year old Traudl Junge appears on camera to recount of her life. She was Adolf Hitler’s private secretary from autumn 1942 until the collapse of the Nazi regime. It was Traudl Jungle to whom Hitler dictated his final testament. Fifty-six years after the end of the war an important eyewitness reveals her experiences to us. What she saw and heard turned her into a furious opponent of National Socialism. At the same time she seems unable to forgive the young girl she once was, for her naivety, ignorance, and her liking for Hitler.
