Lost childhood: the story of the Birkenau boys

Movies
A group of Holocaust survivors -- some of the 89 Jewish boys spared by Dr. Joseph Mengele to live as slave laborers in the Birkenau death camp -- return to Europe fifty years later. They recount their experiences in the camp, their survival tactics and coping mechanisms, and the emotional scars they still carry.
