Synopsis This documentary delves into never before seen archival footage and documents to investigate how much the Allies knew about the mass murder of Europe's Jews during World War II and why they did not do more to stop it. What The Allies Knew examines the immigration policy, top secret documents, personal prejudice and government policies that resulted in the deaths of millions.

Kino has a title that is over 30 years old but was one the first on the topic called WHO SHALL LIVE AND WHO SHALL DIE which is directly on point though I imagine there are newer ones on the topic of the US governments failure to help and the politics within the American Jewish community. Features like THE PAWNBROKER and SOPHIE'S CHOICE would be options. In the shameless plug department I would mention NUREMBERG ITS LESSON FOR TODAY which was made by the US government and then suppressed. Among the extras are 3 other films made by the US government about the Holocaust used at the trial and 2 made after.
