Survivors, Children of Survivors, and Witnesses

At a reunion of German concentration camp survivors, interviews with children of these survivors show how painful experiences of the camps have affected their offspring in many different ways. The daughter of survivors of Dachau concentration camp travels to Israel and Germany to gain an understanding of her parents' experience.
