A Treasure in Auschwitz

This documentary tracks the excavations carried out adjacent to the Auschwitz extermination camp. The search is for holy artifacts and art treasures buried near the town’s synagogue by the local Jews when the Germany army invaded. Today there is a forest in the place where the synagogue once stood. The search took 4 years and is documented in this film. The film focuses on the relationships that developed between the Israeli and Polish workers in the shadow of the death camp.
