Flucht 1937 - Wer Half Justus Nussbaum

Movies
A documentary film. At the beginning, there stood a picture of Justus Nussbaum, a Jew from Osnabrueck and brother of the painter Felix Nussbaum and his employee, the Catholic Wilhelm Hellmeister on the grounds of the metal work company Gossel & Nussbaum.The great-granddaughter of Wilhelm Hellemeister takes this photograph as a starting point on the flight of Justus Nussbaum and Alfred Gossels to Amsterdam. The schoolgirl managed not only to illustrate the circumstances of the flight, but to also give insight in Osnabrueck in the Nazi times and the life in exile in Amsterdam.
