This movie is a fictionalized account of the war crimes trial of judges and prosecutors who served the Nazis.
Judgment at Nuremberg depicts a
watershed event: the first trials, based on principles of justice
and international law, of the leaders of a country that waged
aggressive war and committed crimes against humanity. The film is
a gripping, searching and provocative look at
the moral issues surrounding both the actions of the accused and
the process of bringing them to justice. The film also explores
the issue of whether ordinary Germans bore responsibility for the
Holocaust.

To give you a sense of how our Learning Guides can be used by teachers as lesson plans and by parents to supplement school curriculum or for homeschooling, we have set out below a discussion question from the Learning Guide to Judgment at Nuremberg.
Did the people living in Germany during the Second World War bear responsibility for the Holocaust? Did they know about the concentration camps? Was it "very few" as contended by the German defense attorney? Or, as the Janning character finally admits: "Were we deaf? Blind? If we didn't know, it was because we didn't want to know."
The Learning Guide to Judgment at Nuremberg also contains sections on the Benefits of the movie, Possible Problems, Helpful Background, Discussion Questions, Links to the Internet, and Bridges to Reading. The Discussion Questions are divided into three categories: Subject Matter, Social-Emotional Learning, and Moral-Ethical Emphasis.
