June 14, 1940, German forces march into Paris, marking the start of the occupation of the French capital. The city is declared an open city, and the enemy holds control for over four years until August 1944. While much has been documented about the hardships faced by the French under occupation, little is known about the perspective of the German soldiers. What were their living conditions like? How did they experience this period? Did they interact with the French population? Let's explore the untold story of the German soldiers during the occupation of Paris.
Director: Baraba Necek

Why would a production company spend so much effort to compile all the pictures and information for a first class documentary and then spoil it with incredibly inept narrators who had obviously made no effort to learn the correct pronunciation of German and French words. Even some English words were mispronounced! Students in high school language classes could have done a better job. Indeed, I studied French in high school nearly 60 years ago and I still know how to pronounce the words these narrators positively butchered! There are other UKposts documentaries with mispronounced words, but this one is the absolutely worst I have seen so far!

The pronunciation of French and German words is below any critique. I bet there will soon be software capable of recognizing foreign words and pronouncing them correctly (without intercutting to voices speaking in French or German). After all, there is already inexpensive software capable of giving the right intonation and adding mood. Since all of you experts expect things to be perfect for your free consumption, you might have to wait a little to be served adequately -- but keep complaining and an affordable, more sophisticated A.I. voice might be integrated in the next video of this kind :)

@@sydmccreath4554 It is not the right pronunciation in 50 or more languages that is hard to achieve -- it is all available --, it is more difficult to make sure the voices do not sound robotic, though the latest generation of such voices has been improved. As for the right pronunciation of foreign words, the simplest solution would be to "butcher" the spelling of a French or a German word in a way that the English reading and speaking A.I. voice would read it that it sounds as close as it gets to the French or the German words (I did it, it is only a matter of tricking the system).

Thank you for this remarkably done historical account of the German occupation. Much too young to understand and be aware of this part of ww2, I feel it's important to learn from the history of the German invasion of Paris. I cannot imagine what it would be like to be under occupation by an enemie force. Paris so beautiful made into a german state, stolen artworks never recovered. Very sad for the French people, in the end they managed to take back their city. I would add that by being aware of this history and ww2 that we learn from it and leaders do not repeat, however it appears they do not learn and therefore warfare continues around the world today.
@roryobrien4401

Paris never fully recovered from the trauma of occupation. Of course, all the famous locations are still there, but the atmosphere is nowhere near what it was pre-1940. Renowned bars like Le Sélect, La Coupôle and Les Deux Magots (among others) are elegant but soulless. The famous artists and writers and artists of the 1930s were never to return, they either went back home or went elsewhere. As the last words in this documentary significantly foretell, the Germans still kept their fascination for Paris. And not just them, either: the Americans and the British got in on the act, transforming the great city into a polished shopwindow for the masses, which it remains to this day. Am I right or am I right, Emily?

I am also very interested in WW2 and up until seeing this documentary, i have neither seen anything about the occupation of Paris, except the hoisting of the Swastika up the tower and Hitlers brief visit. However, i had seen lots of stuff about the LIBERATION of Paris near the end of the War. It's interesting how différent countries portray certain events. Obviously the French were deeply hurt and even ashamed that they were so easily defeated, but they didnt just give-up at the first sign of an invader like loads of ignorant people believe. Les Soldats Français were very brave really to hold out as long as they did with their almost useless First World War Era equipment against the Blitzkreig and the already battle hardened Germans with their much better weaponry. They were betrayed by their own Government really (Vichy). After watching this very interesting documentary it changes a bit my view of the Parisien Resistance and the Liberation. If you can't find English docs about various évents during the War, try looking for the same thing in French, you can have subtitles , if you aren't a fluent speaker of their really confusing language. There exist many things that some peoples would like to sée rubbed out of the History Books, really. I suppose you are familiar with "les règlements des comptes" at the end when collaborators were "punished"... it's a shamefull part of the History of France, because many werent really traitors (obviously there WERE loads!) but not all who were killed or beaten were really what they were accussed of. Jeez , am waffling. I presume also you know Mark Felton? His mini documentaries in my opinion are THE BEST.

Rinehart Heydrich was slated to be transferred to Paris, but Heydrich was assassinated just a couple of days before that transfer actually took place. All of France narrowly escaped his brutality, and they should declare a national holiday to honor the 6 brave resistance fighters from chechoslavakia, that put an end to his murderous reign.

It was up to France to pay the cost of German occupation at the cost of 160 million Euros daily. But, the worst cost was the lost lives of so many innocents. The Germans had their few years of 'heaven on earth,' all for it to bring destruction and death and ultimate defeat on themselves. So many wasted lives for the ambitions of a relatively few.
