Our Grandfather and Auschwitz

Two sisters discover their grandfather's Nazi past through a book by an Auschwitz survivor. They follow the traces and delve into the history of the persecution of Jews by the National Socialists in the occupied Netherlands.

Did the grandfather himself torture, kill? Did he know what was happening in Auschwitz? Did he later regret his actions?

How were perpetrators like him dealt with in post-war Germany? In the course of their years of research, the sisters come into contact with descendants of victims and develop their own approach to dealing with the guilt in the family.

A book that, based on in-depth source research, highlights how Nazi perpetrators in post-war Germany benefited from the failed denazification, while Nazi jurists seamlessly continued their careers.
