Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
In this drama, a Yugoslavian journalist is hired by a German policeman to find the last surviving ex-inmate of a concentration camp. The cops want her because they believe she witnessed atrocities at the hands of the camp physician. The journalist finds her and the cops and prosecutors try to persuade her to testify at the trial. The woman refuses, and they begin persecuting her until the poor woman commits suicide.
