The papacy of Pope Pius XII is shrouded in controversy but none so great as his actions, or rather inaction, during the Second World War. “Pope Pius XII and the Holocaust” seeks to understand the mind of this controversial figure in this moment of crisis for both the Catholic Church and the world. Thanks to exclusive access to recently uncovered documents in the Vatican archives, this documentary tells the story of the tense relationship between the Catholic Church and Nazi Germany from Hitler’s appointment to one of the most tragic moments of the 20th century.
