Movie description

In 1944, a Jewish prisoner was commissioned by camp commander Gemmeker to make a film about life and work in Westerbork. Seven seconds from this film became the symbol of the deportations to the Nazi extermination camps: a girl with a white headscarf standing in the doorway of a goods wagon. Who was she? In 1994 Cherry Duyns followed journalist Aad Wagenaar in search of the girl's identity.
