לסלוח למנגלה

This documentary film tells the story of Eva Mozes who were, together with her twin sister, victim of Nazi SS doctor Josef Mengele and decides to gather a press conference in which she declares a forgiveness to perpetrator Dr. Mengele is the best way of self healing. This declaration provoked a stance that angered her fellow survivors since forgiveness can be construed as applying to the unrepentant and is to betray Mengele’s other victims.

Auschwitz, The Nazis and the Final Solution

Forth part in the BBC 6-part documentary series; ‘Corruption’ reveals why Auschwitz was unique in the Nazi state as the only site that was both a concentration and an extermination camp.

Meanwhile, the SS profited from the belongings of those they killed-so much so, that in the summer of 1943, an investigation was launched into corruption in the camp and the commandant was removed. Elsewhere, individuals and nations are...
