| Summary: |
This film reveals the little known story of Berga. In December 1944, thousands of American prisoners were transported to Stalag 9B. The Nazi guards asked all the Jews to identify themselves. When no one responded they chose soldiers that "looked Jewish" or had "Jewish-sounding" names, and shipped them off to Berga, a satellite camp to the infamous Buchenwald. These Americans suffered the same as all the other Jews in the camp. |
