Inside Nazi Germany is a 1938 documentary short (16 minutes) directed by Jack Glenn.It is an episode of the "March of Time" newsreel series that ran in American movie theaters in the 1930s and 1940s (and was memorably parodied in Citizen Kane). Unlike most "March of Time" newsreels, which provided bite-sized digests about multiple subjects, this one focused on a single subject: Nazi Germany. And while most of Hollywood was unwilling to take an anti-Nazi stand due to fear of losing the German market, this short is stridently anti-Nazi in tone.note Hollywood as a whole didn't start making anti-Nazi movies until 1940 with stuff like The Great Dictator and The Mortal Storm. This made this particular edition of "March of Time" quite controversial; Jack Warner of Warner Brothers refused to show it in WB theaters.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Julien Bryan, the photographer who shot the scenes actually filmed in Germany, later made another documentary short, Siege, about the 1939 siege of Warsaw.

Dramatization: The footage taken by Julien Bryan in Germany proved insufficiently disturbing, and indeed verged on Broken Aesop, with all the shots of happy, healthy Germans enjoying outdoor life and leisure. So the filmmakers worked with anti-Nazi Germans in Hoboken, NJ to dramatize more overtly anti-Nazi content, filming scenes of a German family at home listening to propaganda broadcasts and being forced to contribute to the government Winterhilfe charity. Other scenes that are obvious dramatizations include dissidents being executed and nuns jailed.
