Synopsis:

***WARNING***Brief non-English speaking scenes are not subtitled in English***My Enemy's Enemy reveals an alternate history of the post-war world. This is a version of history where, in contrast to what we are all told, fascist ideology prevailed. The story of Klaus Barbie, Nazi torturer, American spy, tool of repressive right wing regimes, is symbolic of the real relationship that the 'Western' governments had with fascism and makes us see the world as it is today - and the politicians that inhabit it - in a different way.

A look at the history of one-time Gestapo commander Klaus Barbie, infamously known as 'The Butcher of Lyon.' This documentary's main focus will be on Barbie's post-war activities, in which he became a counter-intelligence agent who worked for the same countries that pursued him during WWII.
