CGiii Comment

A re-make of the 1963 propaganda-laden film...

The very worst and best of mankind...are shown in this superior television film.

For want of a better word...harrowing, from start to finish.

The deftness of the direction...plays with the heartstrings...as does the absorbing score.

Truly, this deserved a cinematic release.

The(ir) Blurb...

Concentration camp Buchenwald, end of March 1945. Inmate Hans Pippig discovers in a carrying case of an incoming prisoner a Jewish infant. If reported the three-year-old is dedicated to the death.
