    • Trivia
      Epilogue accompanying photographs from World War II: "Approximately 25,000 Black Germans existed under the Third Reich, including Rhineland children. Some perished in the camp system and others survived to be liberated in 1945. Together with those teens who escaped sterilisation, the survivors defied Hitler's vision of a future Germany without Black Germans."
    • Goofs
      In the "womens camps" there were few male "overseers". Virtually all the germans who interacted with the prisoners in the women's camps were females, and the women guards on the whole were notorious for being more sadistic than the male guards.
    • Quotes

      Leyna: As I reached sixteen, I realized Hitler had a plan for us.

    Heartbreaking

    This movie was so very sad. I'm sure there were many stories like this during that time period in Germany. I cannot not digest man's inhumanity to man no matter what religion or race the are. So very disturbing. In my opinion this was a very well acted movie. The ending! Bittersweet. I don't understand how anybody could give it a bad review. I believe,actually that this should have been shown on the big screen. It would have done well
