MagellanTV Debuts Beyond the Myth: The SS Unveiled

Documentary streaming service MagellanTV is set to launch Beyond the Myth: The SS Unveiled today, anchoring its inaugural War & Military Week, which runs through June 6.

Beyond the Myth provides a detailed look into the origins and motivations of the SS of Nazi Germany through interviews with international experts and rare archival footage. All six episodes will bow on the streamer today, with the first episode available to non-subscribers for one week.

The series anchors MagellanTV’s War & Military Week, which will feature a lineup of series and films that spotlight historic global conflicts and the military strategies that have shaped the modern world, including The Day When, Civil War: The Untold Story, WWII in the Pacific, Impossible Peace: The Time Between World Wars and more. It runs through Monday, June 6, the 78th anniversary of D-Day.

Produced by Doclights for ZDF in association with ZDF Studios and MagellanTV, Beyond the Myth was directed by Gabriele Rose, produced by Victoria Vorbroker and executive produced by Stefan Bomhof.

“MagellanTV is built for documentary lovers—history buffs, science geeks, true-crime junkies—who crave deeper, more detailed explorations into a variety of fascinating topics,” said Greg Diefenbach, managing director of MagellanTV. “Beyond the Myth is a prime example of content that offers a uniquely compelling, meticulous and comprehensive portrait of its subject matter, and we’re thrilled to partner with ZDF to debut this new series on MagellanTV.”
