Where can i find a copy of "the wave" after school special?

I don't know where you can find a copy, but I think this is the one I was looking for and going to ask about. Is this the one where a history teacher did an experiment in a high school that paralleled Nazism in 1930's Germany to teach the kids how the movement gained power? I remember that episode and it had a big impact on me because I had no idea what was going on until the end and I was so shocked.

That's the one...I saw it in 12th grade. It was pretty interesting.

That one, I believe, at least had a video release. It was very well done, adapting the book, which is a teen Lit classic.
