Dresden 1945 - Ilden og mørket
I februar 1945 blev Dresden udslettet. Tusindvis af bomber blev kastet ned over byen, og omkring 25.000 mennesker blev dræbt. Den engelske bestsellerforfatter Sinclair McKay giver en levende beskrivelse af angrebet fra de allerførste bomber til de enorme brande, der bredte sig gennem byens kvarterer. Flammerne nåede efterhånden mere end en kilometer op i luften. DRESDEN 1945 er baseret på et væld af nyt arkivmateriale såvel som førstehåndsberetninger fra indbyggere, flygtninge, børn, piloter og krigsfanger. Sinclair McKay fortæller også om byens historie og livet før angrebet – og om det enorme genopbygningsarbejde i årene efter.
