Summaries

Peremyshl (now Przemysl), the city in Poland, which in 1939 was literally divided between Germany and the Soviet Union, became again the center of the Wehrmacht attacks in 1941, when World War II was unleashed. In fact, it was the first Soviet city captured by the Wehrmacht. It happened on June 23, 1941 - on the second day of the war. Polish historians and a few extant witnesses tell about the first battles of the war. With the help of local residents film crew managed to make some discoveries associated with the first battles at the border - the facts, which were new not only to the crew, but to professional historians as well.
