The "armorers of the German Reich" were one of Germany's most powerful and controversial families, a dynasty built of steel, arms and blood. The miniseries focuses on matriarch Bertha, who clung to the past and to the family's privileges, and on Alfried, who collaborated with the Nazis yet knew that the winds of change had to come … A gripping, fact-based historical drama that relates the story of the Krupp family in the 20th century, the period of their greatest power - and of their downfall.
