The first of three films follows the hunt for Aribert Heim, the most wanted Nazi war criminal in the world. His atrocities at Mauthausen concentration camp defy belief. He murdered hundreds of inmates in the six weeks that he was there, carrying out unnecessary amputations and removing organs without anaesthesia, injecting poison into the hearts of patients to see how long it it took them to die. He was arrested and released by Americans at the end of the war, living a peaceful and prosperous life as a gynaecologist in Baden Baden until a new arrest warrant was issued in 1962. He was tipped off and fled, since when there have been sightings all over the world. Reports suggest that he may have died of cancer in Egypt in August 1992, but no body or grave has been found.
