And Each of Them Had a Name

Documentary focusing on the solidarity between communists interned at Buchenwald concentration camp during World War II. [WARNING: includes distressing content and images of corpses.]. Tracing the classical history of Weimar, through the rise of Hitler and beyond, this film uses numerous interviews with survivors of the camp to illustrate day-to-day life and the resilience of the Communist movement.
