In 1997, the District Attorney of Frankfurt consented to perform a DNA test on bones unearthed in 1973. This was to determine whether the remains were those of Martin Bormann, Hitler's right-hand man who allegedly disappeared at the end of WWII. With international focus on the return of this unsolved mystery, this film sifts through the rumours and theories and reveals possible answers to the question: what happened to Martin Bormann? The Disappearance of Martin Bormann explores the likelihood of Bormann's escape, the plausibility of a suicide and also presents new evidence suggesting a postwar life in Italy.
