Forty female musicians from all over Europe performed in the Auschwitz Orchestra. They were directed by the brilliant violinist Alma Rose, who owes her own survival to her close blood ties to Gustav Mahler. Eleven of the "Orchestra" were still living when this documentary was made, and they met to recall their story and confront their unique position in the history of the Holocaust.
