A grave, unflinching historical documentary that bears witness to the Holocaust through archival evidence and survivor testimony, grounded in the moral imperative to remember and warn against recurrence.

The mass murder of Jewish people by the Nazi regime is chronicled, with a warning that anti-Semitism is on the rise and the events of the Holocaust could happen again. The history of European Jewish culture and events before and during the Holocaust are seen in newsreels, photographs, and animated segments. The words of the victims of the era are read, and footage from the liberation os a concentration camp is shown.
