- Overview
- A victim of a war of memories, the camp has been the subject of intense confrontation for the past seventy years. After its liberation by the Soviet army in 1945, the site was in turn plundered, developed and exploited by political and religious authorities. During the Cold War, the facts themselves were distorted to suit the ideological interests of each party, often obscuring the singularity of the Jewish genocide. As the last survivors of the Holocaust disappear, new dangers arise. What will be the fate of this place steeped in history?
