And yet Verdun became a symbol of France's resilience in World War I in 1916. In the battle, which lasted 300 days, an estimated 350,000 men died. Ninety years later, the film depicts some of the fates of German and French soldiers in re-enacted scenes. The film was based on letters and diaries they had once written.
 
Most of the black and white scenes are taken from the 1930 ''The Somme'' and 1931 ''Douaumont'' movies.

Verdun: Descent Into Hell is a 2006 French-German-produced Documentary about the Battle of Verdun in 1916 and was broadcast for the 90th anniversary of the battle. The docudrama focuses on the everyday life of simple soldiers and officers during the battle. A small town with only 22,000 inhabitants. And yet Verdun became a symbol of France's resilience in World War I in 1916. In the battle, which lasted 300 days, an estimated 350,000 men died. Ninety years later, the film depicts some of the fates of German and French soldiers in re-enacted scenes. The film was based on letters and diaries they had once written.
