The film centers around four survivors, one of whom is Steven Moskovic’s father, who lived through the horror of came to be known as Kinderblock 66, a part of Buchenwald Concentration Camp that was designated for the roughly 2,000 teenage boys and young men who were separated from their families and sent to the camp. Video recordings made when the survivors returned for the 65th anniversary of Buchenwald’s liberation and archival footage provide a window into their ordeal and their lives before and after the Holocaust. As importantly, the film also tells the remarkable story of the boys’ rescuer, Czech Communist political prisoner Antonin Kalina. He and his fellow prisoners decided to place the youths in a special barrack, far away from the main part of Buchenwald, deep in the filthy quarantine area where the SS was loathe to go. In that way, they ensured the survival of the boys he placed there.
