Between 1942 and 1944, in France more than 11,400 Jewish children were delivered to the Nazis by the French authorities and murdered in Auschwitz. Serge and Beate Klarsfeld, tireless stalkers of criminals Nazis, historians and activists of memory, present here unpublished materials from meticulous historical research. The film follows the "method" Klarsfeld ": he tries to lift the victims out of anonymity by giving them back a face, a name, and a story.
