Dresden, the Florence of the Elbe, a baroque work of art and one of the last cities, which had left by the bombing during the Second World War is still largely intact, sank in just 12 hours in rubble. At least 30,000 people were in a terrible fire storm end. The film depicts an example of the fate of the victims of this attack, the fate of Dresden but also that of the pilots, the fates of the survivors and those who could not escape the flames.
