interesting but slow in places
cyreneic12 May 2005
I watched the movie while visiting Buenos Aires on a recent trip. The movie provides significant insight into WW2 relationship between Argentina – Germany – Vatican … yes, that's right, the Vatican. It provides insight into how all those Nazi war criminals ended up in Argentina. It also provides some interesting insight into the Perons. Even the famous Eva Peron comes out smelling less than rosy. While the content was very enlightening, the pacing of the movie was very poor. It seemed that they rehashed many of the principal points continually. I think a couple of small edits could have improved the pacing significantly. I would still recommend watching the movie, as it is fascinating in parts and the ending is shocking, disturbing and disgusting all at once.

For a more dramatic insight into more recent Argentinean politics, you may also want to watch "La Historia Oficial" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089276/).

Nazi war criminals to Argentina
magullon31 January 2009
Plot provides strong evidence and controversy about the arrival of Nazi war criminals to Argentina and their huge fortunes, claiming also the participation of Swiss banks, the Vatican State and the transfer of U.S. government. Unpublished testimonies, and very meticulous recreations endorsement of renowned researchers in the world, casts light on the darker legacy of Nazism. Filmed in magnificent scenery, "Nazi Gold in Argentina" will collect evidence and testimony in Buenos Aires, Rome, Madrid, Geneva and Zurich, within the streets of Berne up to the shores of the Baltic Sea in Germany, adding to the rigor documentary an alarming rate of police intrigue and espionage. The viewer to access micro-films recently released secret, it introduces genuine submarine of World War II and type, with hidden cameras at homes of people heavily involved in the handling of Nazi treasure. Based on the book by journalist Jorge Camarasa "Odessa south" the film is enriched with the backing of researchers from great international prestige, such as Jean Ziegler, and Uki Goñi Beatriz Gurevich, among others. The experience of victims and survivors collide dramatically with the chilling statements Wilfred Von Oven, a former secretary of Göbbels, or the child of the criminal Erich Priebke.
