And if he can just figure out how to put them together, perhaps their world could be a very different place, too. They’re all pieces of a puzzle, Abendson believes. People in the resistance pass around these movies like holy relics, using them to cling to their desperate struggle and sometimes to recruit others along the way.Īnd even as the now frail Adolph Hitler tries to gather these films for himself, another, more mysterious man-Abendson, the Man in the High Castle-has his own archive. Indeed, such realities are locked away in mysterious home movies and newsreels-perhaps evidence that the Nazified world everyone lives in may not be the only world possible. There are those who imagine a much different America-those who believe that somewhere, somehow, such an America actually exists. of A.īut not everyone is content to goosestep their days away. And with Hitler’s time as Fuhrer coming to a close, there’s a sense inside the Nazi regime that it’s time for another war-one that will pit Japan against Germany, with the winner claiming the once proud U.S. A sliver of land-the Rocky Mountain region, essentially-is classified as a neutral buffer zone between these two “friendly” empires. After Germany dropped the bomb on Washington, D.C., and won World War II, Germany and Japan divvied the former United States between them-the Third Reich claiming the Great Plains and everything east, the Empire of the Rising Sun pocketing the Pacific time zone. Most of the United States is safely in the Fuhrer’s collection of sycophant states-a New World outpost of fascism called the Greater Nazi Reich. At least as far as the Nazis are concerned.
