Conspiracy is a 2001 made-for-television drama film that dramatises the 1942 Wannsee Conference. Using the authentic script taken from the only surviving transcript recorded during the meeting, the film delves into the psychology of Nazi officials involved in the "Final Solution of the Jewish question" during World War II. The film was written by Loring Mandel and directed by Frank Pierson. Its ensemble cast includes Colin Firth, David Threlfall, Kenneth Branagh as Reinhard Heydrich, and Stanley Tucci as Adolf Eichmann. Branagh won an Emmy Award for Best Actor, and Tucci was awarded a Golden Globe for his supporting role. Plot On 20 January 1942, Nazi officials hold a conference at a villa in Wannsee, a wealthy district on the outskirts of Berlin, to determine the method by which they will make Germany's territory free of Jews, including the occupied countries of Poland, Reichskommissariat Ostland, Czechoslovakia and France. The men establish that there is a significant "Jewish problem". Friedrich Wilhelm Kritzinger, says that the meeting is pointless and that the Jewish question is already settled. Reinhard Heydrich, announces that government's policy will change from emigration to "evacuation", and Fascist Italy will be forced to cooperate. There is consternation over the use of euphemisms from the SS members, who want to adopt an open policy of genocide. The men discuss sterilisation and of exemptions for mixed-race Jews who have one or more non-Jewish grandparents. Heydrich calls a break in the proceedings, and after praising Stuckart aloud takes him aside to warn him about the consequences of his stubbornness. On reconvening, Heydrich steers the discussion in the direction of wholesale extermination using gas chambers. It is then discovered that the SS have been building extermination camps at Belzec, Sobibor and Treblinka, and making preparations for the "Final Solution" under his nose. It becomes clear to the attendees that they have been called together not to discuss the problem but to be given orders by the Nazi's. It is described how the method that will be used: the gassing of Jews, and that the permanent gas chambers will be built at locations such as Auschwitz. Throughout the meeting and over refreshments attendees raise other side issues, reflecting the interests of their respective work areas, including concernes that typhus could break out from the overpopulated ghettos in Poland. A break is called and this time it is Kritzinger's turn to be taken aside and intimidated
