Director Aleksandrov recreates the staged historical encounter on the Elbe in 1945. After most Nazis have fled in haste and the town of Torgau has fallen into the hands of the Red Army, American troops also rush in to celebrate victory with the Russians. And that's it for the arrogant General McDermot and the American soldiers. They are not interested in cooperation and development. Getting drunk in the nightclub and smuggling cigarettes is a priority. And occasionally beat up a black soldier and harass the ladies. As the new Göring, McDermot is mainly concerned with the art trade. And then there are the intrigues, helping a war criminal escape. No, the Americans do not make themselves very popular. To the delight of the residents, they leave quickly. My wife summarizes the film in one word: propaganda.
