On orders from General Reinhard Heydrich (Larry Reinhardt-Meyer), Nazi storm troopers ravaged the streets of Berlin on the evening of November 9, 1938, in retaliation for the assassination of a German diplomat in France by a Jew. At the end of this rampage, 101 synagogues and 7500 Jewish businesses had been destroyed. Three days following this night of destruction– Kristallnacht – Field Marshall Hermann Goering (Licata) called a meeting of top Nazi leadership to discuss the ramifications of the damage to the German economy. Lead by Goering, the meeting was attended by Heydrich, Dr. Ernst Woermann (Carroll), Walther Funk (Shields), Dr. Josef Paul Goebbels (Oberlander), and Dr. Hans Fishboeck (Wade). With Goering’s personal secretary Frau Greta Grundtmann-Kornatski (Daddio) on hand to take minutes of the proceedings, the group crafts a plan to extricate Jews from the German economy. As the meeting progresses, the conversation turns away from matters of a purely financial nature to the bigger question of how to eliminate the Jews from all of German society and be rid of them once and for all.
