The Angel Of Death: How Josef Mengele Escaped Justice

Josef Mengele, the "Angel of Death," was responsible for the murder of 400,000 people and horrific experiments on 3,000 twins at Auschwitz. Yet, while other high-ranking Nazis faced the gallows, Mengele vanished. This documentary traces his escape through Europe to South America, the daring near-misses with Mossad agents, and the tireless 40-year pursuit by Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal.
