plot

 Ghetto, brick factory, train station, mass graves - 60 years later the neighbours of the Hungarian Jews remember. What did they do and what could have been done? What did the bystanders see and what do they believe they saw in their small town community during the last days of World War II?

"I don't like to talk about it. These are bad memories."
"They were born here. They never thought they would ever leave."
"It was a topsy-turvy world... The average people could do nothing."
"We were quite close friends but still, they never told me anything about what had happened to them over there. I didn't ask, they didn't say..."
