Escort of Shame

Filmmaker, historian, and author Raphael Delpard released this Documentary film, which focuses on the Jewish victims transported from France to Nazi concentration camps during World War II, in cattle car convoys operated by SNCF – the French national train company. Delpard himself was one of the fortunate few who survived the harrowing and unforgettable journey and subsequent imprisonment. He conveys the horrors of the experience through interviews with survivors as well as re-enactments of the actual events that took place.
