How it feels

This film tells the true story of twenty Jewish children who were hanged at a Hamburg school in 1945 after brutal medical experiments by the SS. It uses eyewitness accounts and historical newsreels to show what happened, and also examines how neo-Nazi groups remained active in West Germany decades later.
