- Synopsis:
Buchenwald Concentration Camp
After being established in the summer of 1937, Buchenwald soon developed into one of the largest concentration camps in Germany. In its 8 years of existence, approximately 250,000 inmates from 35 countries were imprisoned here. More than 50,000 of them died during the camp's reign of terror. They were systematically culled. The inmates were submitted to the life of slaves, working for the S.S. and the Third Reich. They were deliberately made to suffer by hunger and beatings until death, and were easily replaced by a regular influx of new prisoners.Using previously unpublished photographic documents and statements by witnesses to the events, this film documentary reconstructs the history of the camp.
