Wannsee Conference - Dramatization

Dramatization

The events of the Conference have been dramatized in two films.

• The 1984 German television film Wannseekonferenz (The Wannsee Conference) runs 85 minutes—exactly the length of the conference itself, with a script derived from the minutes of the meeting.
• In 2001 the BBC/HBO film Conspiracy starred Kenneth Branagh as Heydrich and Stanley Tucci as Eichmann and was also scripted according to the exact timeframe and minutes of the original meeting.
• The Wannsee conference is central to the plot of the alternate-historical novel Fatherland by Robert Harris.
