Summary edit

Description
English: Part of a documentary film produced by the Soviet Army Film Unit, presented as evidence and shown at the Nuremberg Trials as Prosecution Exhibit #229.

Translation of the German narration [1] :

This reel contains close shots of children showing the numbers on their arms, high angle shot of procession of children moving in barbed wire enclosure, close-ups of charred heads and remains of bodies in the ovens, close-ups of cans of gas and other chemicals, bodies in a deep trench, one dead woman with embryo beside her. The Russian commission examines deep grave filled with bodies. Prisoners demonstrate a scaffold, including the trap and noose. There are close shots of prisoners who were professors and doctors. In the storehouse are: human hair in bundles, piles of false teeth, razors, brushes, eyeglasses, shoes and clothes. Russian soldiers hold up some children clothes. Suitcases from all countries are also piled up. Women weep beside grave. A band plays the funeral march. Choir boys follow the band. Many coffins are carried to large grave as hundreds attend ceremonies. Priests and flag bearers attend. Women weep as the huge grave is covered. Doctors examine some of the survivors: an emaciated youth, children with bad feet, men with swollen ankles, all evidences of brutality. Some still photographs formerly of healthy children in contrast with conditions in the camp. The film ends with photographs of the Nazi officers who are heald guilty for the conditions at the camp.
