Episode 1 • May 01, 2022
Preparing for D-Day
Voices of Liberation is a 11-part documentary series about the Allied liberation of Europe during World War II.
Episode 2 • May 01, 2022
D-Day
Operation Overlord was a day late due to atrocious weather. It began on the 6th of June 1944. During the night, thousands of paratroopers landed on both sides of the projected bridgehead during the dangerous airborne assault. At dawn, thousands of transports ships and boats began landing the troops on the shore. At certain points, the German resistance was fierce.
Episode 3 • May 01, 2022
The battle of Normandy
The Battle of Normandy began on the 7th of June and the fighting between the large hedgerows lasted nearly 80 days. Finally, the breakthrough at Avranches leads to the exploitation, and the liberation of Alençon, being the first French city liberated by French troops.
Episode 4 • May 01, 2022
The liberation of Paris
From the moment the Allied soldiers had crossed the Seine, the road to Paris was opened. But it was the Parisians who would take the initiative in its liberation by triggering a general strike. The arrival of the 2nd Armored Division on the 24th of August and General de Gaulle the following day, marked a highly symbolic turning point in the liberation of France.
Episode 5 • May 01, 2022
The liberation of Brussels and Antwerp
Having mauled German armies in Normandy and liberated Paris, the Allies began their pursuit after the retreating Germans. Soon they overran the Belgian border at Tournai on the 2nd of September. The following days, the liberation of Brussels and Antwerp began. Immediately, the payback against suspected collaborators started. Over 80.000 citizens were arrested just after the liberation.
Episode 6 • May 01, 2022
Operation Market Garden
After liberating Belgium, the Allied advance started to falter due to the lack of supplies. This gave the German forces a chance to catch their breath and set up an effective defense, partly along the West Wall (aka. The Siegfried Line). It was Montgomery who came up with a plan to land 35.000 paratroopers at Eindhoven, Nijmegen and Arnhem to capture vital bridges on rivers and canals in the Netherlands. Simultaneously, a ground force would advance northwards from Belgium to relieve the paratroopers. The operation proved to be extraordinarily ambitious and failed to achieve all its goals.
Episode 7 • May 01, 2022
The battle of the Scheldt and Texel
Although the Allies were able to enjoy liberated Belgium in early October, the large port of Antwerp remained inactive in vain due to the German occupation of the Scheldt estuary. The Battle of the Scheldt that followed is known for its bloody battles in appalling weather and semi-flooded areas.
Episode 8 • May 01, 2022
The horror of Hürtgenwald
Due to the delayed advance of the Allies and the efficient German defense network, the pre-war defensive wall known as the Siegfried Line, ultimately proved its worth. Fierce fighting would break out south of Aachen, in a hilly, wooded area called Hürtgenwald.
Episode 9 • May 01, 2022
The battle of the Bulge
In mid-September 1944, Hitler decided to organize a counteroffensive through the Ardennes in order to regain the strategic initiative. Also, to force the Western Allies to negotiate for peace in order to throw all the forces against the Red Army. Although this final gamble initially took the US forces by surprise, it ended with a hard-fought Allied victory.
Episode 10 • May 01, 2022
Over the Rhine and to the Camps
When in the North, Montgomery was planning a forced crossing of the Rhine. Further to the South in the American sector, US troops managed to capture an intact railroad bridge at Remagen, creating the first bridgehead on the eastern shore of the Rhine. Berlin was within reach.
Episode 11 • May 01, 2022
The End of WWII in Europe
In mid-April the Red Army began the Berlin operation with heavy artillery support. After bloody fighting, the strong German defenses were overwhelmed and the Red Army approached the city. On the last day of April, Hitler committed suicide. Two days later, the Reichstag fell and the extremely savage and bloody battle of Berlin was done. World War II was over.

Cries from Syria

Cries from Syria

CRIES FROM SYRIA is a searing, comprehensive account of a brutal five-year conflict from the inside out, drawing on hundreds of hours of war footage from Syrian activists and citizen journalists, as well as testimony from child protesters, leaders of the revolution, human rights defenders, ordinary citizens, and high-ranking army generals who defected from the government. Their collective stories are a cry for attention and help from a world that little understands their reality or agrees on what to do about it. A documentary by Evgeny Afineevsky, director of the Oscar-nominated film WINTER ON FIRE, CRIES FROM SYRIA premiered at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.
