Royal Flush Festival 2009

Based on the book of the same title by best-selling author Edwin Black, "War Against the Weak" is the untold story of American Eugenics, a movement that attempted to breed a Nordic master race through the elimination of those deemed 'unfit'. Germany's Nazi regimes practiced American Eugenics principles without restraint, culminating in the Third Reich's infamous implementation of systematic genocide. With the onset of World War II, Nazi eugenics programs accelerated from mass sterilization and euthanasia to deliberate liquidation of perceived 'inferior' races. War Against the Weak is a gripping narrative of high science applied in the basest, most horrific form and should serve as warning bell for the impending genetic age when technological marvels again threaten to be applied for the goals of a selected few without moral compass. Director Justin Strawham & Producer Peter Demas in attendance for Q & A.
