PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
During the Second World War, Arthur Dodd from Cheshire, England, was held as a POW in Auschwitz. He worked with other Allied prisoners in the IG Farben plant, and knew nothing of the fate of the camp's jews. Until he met Maria Koszka, a Polish worker from a nearby village, who took him on a tour of the 'extermination area'. When he returned home, no one wanted to hear about the horrors of mass extermination. They didn't believe him, and in the end, Arthur stopped talking about it. He maintained his silence for thirty years, plagued by repetitive nightmares and stress-related illnesses, until now.
