Brennt Paris?
August 1944: Der Befehl Lautete: Paris ist zu vernichten...
Der für Paris zuständige NS-General Dietrich von Cholitz hat von Hitler persönlich den Befehl erhalten, die Stadt niederzubrennen, sollte er sie nicht halten können oder die Alliierten zu nahe kommen. Ein Großteil der Handlung dreht sich um die moralischen Abwägungen des Generals, des schwedischen Botschafters sowie der engagierten, aber verzweifelten Anführer der Résistance.
