Plot

Five Jewish Hungarians, now residing in the United States, share their harrowing experiences from before March 1944, when the Nazis initiated the systematic extermination of Hungarian Jews. Their narratives reveal the horrors of life in concentration camps and the emotional journey of returning to their childhood homes over half a century later. Among them are an historian, a former Sonderkommando, a doctor involved in horrific experiments at Auschwitz, and U.S. soldiers who played a crucial role in the liberation of the camps in April 1945, offering a poignant reflection on survival and memory.
