Memories, in general, and history specifically reflect the biases of the observer. Patriotism, nationalism, partiality, and opinion are further included in the story by further repeating, teaching, and writing about the event. This docuseries does justice in making an effort to cut through all of that and show the shades of grey in addition to pure black and white.
