SUPERANNO: Born into a German middle class family, John Koch remembers the world around him from Hitler's ascent to power to the end of World War II, which Koch experienced as a soldier and a prisoner of war. From hundreds of remembered events, discussions, arguments, and episodes of risk and danger, he creates a mosaic that blends into a composite picture of a country hurtling toward the twelve years of Hitler's dictatorship over Germany and much of Europe, from which there was no escape.
