Event Navigation
This documentary chronicles the untold story of 999 mostly teenage girls betrayed by their government. Told that by volunteering for “work” they would fulfill their patriotic duty, these innocent young women willingly bid their families farewell. Under the cloak of deceit, they were transported on a one-way ticket to Auschwitz. The few who survived endured more than three years in the death camp. Meet the last living survivors of the First Jewish Transport and learn their story. Based on the international bestseller 999: The Extraordinary Young Women of the First Official Jewish Transport to Auschwitz (translated into 19 languages).
