World War II (WWII or WW2), also known as the Second
World War, was a global war that was underway by 1939
and ended in 1945. It involved the vast majority of the
world's nations—including all of the great
powers—eventually forming two opposing military
alliances: the Allies and the Axis. It was the most
widespread war in history, with more than 100 million
people serving in military units.
There are thousands of films about
WWII like this one:
"QB
VII" (1974) (mini)
Adam Kelno has made it to England in the days following World War II. Having
escaped from a death camp in Nazi Europe, he finds that his identification with
anti-communists in Poland has made him a target of the Soviet Government, which
brings up war crime charges against him in England. When the witness is unable
to identify him as one of the doctors who castrated him, he is released. Kelno
takes his wife and young son to Arabia where he labors for years upgrading
public health standards. Upon his return to England he is Knighted. Twenty years
have passed and he has just begun to enjoy his life of renown when a book is
published that names him as a willing participant to Nazi medical experiments on
Jews in the camps. He sues for defamation and finds that not only can he not
escape his past, but that the plaintiff a defamation case has his own reputation
on trial. QB VII refers to the courtroom in which the trial is held, Queen's
Bench, Room 7. Summary (IMDb) written by John Vogel
