Le film retrace la montée du nazisme en Allemagne et la carrière d'Adolf Hitler sous la forme d'une allégorie. Clyde Stoumen ose une comparaison entre le chef du parti nazi et le Goupil de la fable. Il y intercale des documents d'actualité, une série de gravures des dessins de Von Kaulbach et de Gustave Doré ainsi que des caricatures américaines.

Though Okuzaki ultimately holds Emperor Hirohito accountable for all the suffering of the war, ("I hate irresponsible people...the most cowardly man in Japan, is the Emperor Hirohito"), he painstakingly tracks down former soldiers and officers, coaxing them into telling him about the deaths, often abusing them verbally and at times physically in the process (at one point, Okuzaki states that "violence is my forte"). The people he talks to give different accounts of what transpired almost 40 years earlier, some saying that those killed were executed for desertion after the war was already over, while others state that they were shot for cannibalizing New Guinea indigenous people.

Un cocktail mondain à Londres. Alors que les convives font preuve d'une suffisance infinie et pérorent sur les drames du monde, des images viennent fracasser cette frivolité pour redonner du sens et de la chair à ce qui n'est plus pour eux qu'un vague bruissement du monde, alors que celui ci est en feu.
