The Felix Kersten Files 2: The House of Cards

How is it possible to leave behind such a conflicting life story? Arto Koskinen examines information and documents on Felix Kersten, but finds more questions than answers.

We hear quotes from the film ‘Who was Felix Kersten?’, from Felix Kersten’s middle son, Arno Kersten; Felix’s wife, Irmgard Kersten; Friedrich Klingenberg who was a concentration camp prisoner who worked on Kersten’s farm; and historians Sir Hugh Trevor-Roper, Yehuda Bauer and Louis De Jong. We will also hear from investigative reporter Boris Salomon, Dutch journalists Freek van Rijsinge and Jos Verlaan as well as Swedish journalist Ulf Brandell.
