Hart's War — Germany
In a German POW camp in 1944, young lawyer Lt. Hart defends a Black Tuskegee airman falsely accused of murder — exposing racism within Allied ranks even behind the wire.
American POWs were held under the Geneva Convention in German Stalags, with officers and enlisted men in separate facilities. Black American soldiers were sometimes segregated even in captivity, reflecting the Jim Crow-era US military. The film's paradox — fighting Nazi racism while experiencing systemic racism — reflects the real Double V campaign: victory over fascism abroad and racism at home.
