"A little lie may not be believed at all, but a big lie, if repeated with sufficient vigour and frequency, will eventually take deep root in the minds of the uninformed masses." Josef Goebbel's prophetic words resonate deep into our time.

An uneasy silence that reveals itself as the absence of truth about my Scandinavian culture's involvement with the uncomprehensible evil that stems from trying to "purify" other cultures. By following the tale of two Auschwitz survivors we are lead into a devastating past that leads straight into our future.
