This clip from the film The West Berlin Struggle discusses the city of Berlin before and during World War II. It explains how Germany was divided into zones of occupation controlled by the Allied Powers following the end of the war: the United States, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union; and how the city of Berlin – nestled inside the Soviet zone of occupation – was divided into sectors, each controlled by a separate Allied Power.
The West Berlin Struggle is part of The Big Picture documentary television series that was produced by the United States Army Signal Corps.
