Le film apporte des témoignages de cinq soldats à propos du Massacre de Mỹ Lai intervenu en mars 1968 lors de la guerre du Viet Nam, et ayant fait plus de 500 victimes dont beaucoup de femmes, enfants et vieillards. Sur les 110 soldats qui ont participé au massacre, sept ayant démissionné de l'armée acceptent de témoigner, mais deux mentent en affirmant n'y avoir pas participé, et leur témoignage n'est finalement pas retenu. Sur les cinq autres, trois essayent de se justifier.

During the chaotic final weeks of the Vietnam War, the North Vietnamese Army closes in on Saigon as the panicked South Vietnamese people desperately attempt to escape. On the ground, American soldiers and diplomats confront the same moral quandary: whether to obey White House orders to evacuate U.S. citizens only—or to risk punishment and save the lives of as many South Vietnamese citizens as they can. The events recounted in the film mainly center on the US evacuation of Saigon codenamed Operation Frequent Wind.

Le film commence par la description des abominations bolcheviques. Les communistes sont confrontés aux francistes patriotes. On présente le rôle héroïque des volontaires allemands dans la guerre civile espagnole. Le film s'achève avec le retour des volontaires allemands dans leur pays d'origine, l'accueil des rapatriés par le Generalfeldmarschall Hermann Göring et les obsèques nationales à Berlin, au cours de laquelle les membres de la légion Condor reçoivent la croix d'Espagne.

De nombreux films ont pris cette guerre pour sujet. Moins connus, il existe d'admirables documentaires qui, mieux que les longs-métrages de fiction, témoignent de l'exceptionnelle cruauté d'un affrontement qui causa la mort de 58 000 Américains, de plus de 3 millions de Vietnamiens. Emile de Antonio a réalisé au début de la guerre du Vietnam, le réalisateur s'est infiltré méthodiquement dans le tumulte des événements. Il a été le premier à tenter d'expliquer les raisons profondes de la guerre. Avec des méthodes d'archéologue.

Sept façons différentes de présenter les armées nord-vietnamiennes en pleine guerre contre les Etats-Unis. Un conflit opposant les riches aux pauvres sur fond d'indignation ou parfois d'indifférence de la part de l'opinion publique mondiale.
