The film is "World War II: Behind Closed Doors" - two DVD set.
I strongly recommend it to anyone with interest in history. OK, so you say you are quite familiar with that part... take a look and be surprised. While some parts will look familiar, some of the politics and interplay will shock you and create strong sense of revulsion in any decent human being.
Some aspects of the story are truly shocking - the multiple elements of betrayal both at single person level as well as between the states.
The story touches on many, many, many events. Its ability to cover each one in depth is of course limited, but you can use it as a pointer - this is perhaps the film's most positive contribution.
