- "Aghet - A Genocide" - On the Armenian Genocide by the Young Turk government of the Ottoman Empire during World War I. It is based on eyewitness reports by European and American personnel stationed in the Near East at the time, Armenian survivors and other contemporary witnesses which are recited by modern German actors.
- This documentary consists of four programs. (1) "Genocide from Biblical Times through the Ages" covers the Biblical period, the Greeks and Romans, the Mongols, the Crusades, witchcraft around the world, slavery, the annihilation of the Tasmanians, the Native Americans, the Herero genocide, and the Armenian genocide. (2) "Genocide in the First Half of the 20th Century": State-sanctioned violence has always existed, but technological advances have facilitated its use as a viable means of exerting political power. (3) "Never Again? Genocide since the Holocaust" discusses the Chinese experience; the killing fields of Cambodia; Pakistan and Bangladesh; Indonesia and East Timor; the Irish Potato Famine and the Northern Ireland conflict; Central America (Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala, and Chile); and the Kurds in Iraq, Iran and Turkey. (4) "Genocide: The Horror Continues": The late 20th century produced a sinister euphemism: "ethnic cleansing".
- Using rare archival footage, the film chronicles the involvement of Turkey's economic and military ally, Germany, in the first genocide of the 20th century.
