The Gleiwitz Case (German: Der Fall Gleiwitz) is an East German war film directed by Gerhard Klein. It was released in 1961. The plot was reconstructed exactly according to the statements of SS-Man Alfred Naujocks before British authorities at the Nuremberg trials.[1]
The film depicts the Gleiwitz incident from 31 August 1939, a false flag attack on a German radio station staged by the SS. The fake attack was carried out to justify the Invasion of Poland as a defensive attack before the international community.
