In the final months of the Second World War, the crimes committed at Dachau concentration camp begin to emerge, including a series of brutal medical experiments on prisoners. At the center of these actions stands Sigmund Rascher, an SS physician who rose through the ranks with the support of Heinrich Himmler.
Rascher conducted high-altitude and freezing experiments on inmates without consent, causing immense suffering and death under the guise of scientific research. His close ties to the SS leadership gave him extraordinary power within the camp.
Beyond his work at Dachau, Rascher was also involved in a disturbing case linked to the kidnapping of children, revealing another layer of his actions.
As the Nazi regime collapsed, the protection he once enjoyed disappeared, leading to consequences that reflected the severity of his crimes.
