Die Hindenburg (1975)
Eine Katastrophe, die sich tief in das Gedächtnis unseres Jahrhunderts eingebrannt hat: Nach einem Atlantik-Flug soll die „Hindenburg“, das größte Luftschiff der Welt, am Abend des 6.5.1937 im amerikanischen Lakehurst festmachen. Doch plötzlich schlägt aus dem Luxusliner eine Stichflamme. Binnen Sekunden bricht ein loderndes Inferno aus, in dem mit LZ 129 die Ära der großen Zeppeline untergeht. Bis heute wird über Ursachen und Hintergründe spekuliert: War es Sabotage?
