Comments about PBS Secrets of the Dead: Escape from Auschwitz DVD:

Programs about the Holocaust regularly focus on the horrors inflicted upon the prisoners of the Nazi death camps. This documentary examines the heroic actions of Auschwitz prisoners whose resistance helped bring about international awareness and condemnation of Hitler and the Nazi party's Final Solution.

The courage, ingenuity and resourcefulness of these men in the face extreme danger was uplifting and exciting to watch. More stories like this need to be publicly shared.
