The Devil's Confession: The Lost Eichmann Tapes features 28 hours of taped interviews - long believed to be lost - with Nazi SS officer Adolf Eichmann, recorded in 1957 while he was in hiding in Argentina. In the interviews, conducted by Nazi journalist Willem Sassen, Eichmann confesses to his own role in the genocide perpetrated against the Jewish population of Europe as an architect of the Holocaust. When Eichmann was captured and taken to Israel, written transcripts from the interviews were sold to LIFE magazine and published. In 1961, the District Court of Jerusalem tried Eichmann, and the tapes became a focus of the trial. Chief prosecutor Gideon Hausner presented the transcripts as evidence, but because powerful forces had an interest to keep the tapes hidden, he was unable to present the audio, giving Eichmann the opportunity to deny his role in the Holocaust. Recently, the original tapes were rediscovered in the Bundesarchiv, Germany's national archives, and access was granted to make The Devil's Confession: The Lost Eichmann Tapes.
