The Rolling Road

Frankfurt Rhein-Main, the biggest airport of the european continent, has three runways. There were rumours about the building of the first one immediately after World War II; Hungarian women had to build the runway for Hitler's silver bullet, the jet Me 262. In the seventies young workers found first evidence that Jewish girls and women from Auschwitz were brought to Maerfelden-Walldorf. This was dispatched as communist propaganda for a long time. Not until the 90s when a new generation tries to explore the history of their region. A historian and a grade of school set off to find survivors, listen to their stories and reconcile the picture.
