A proud Jew and openly gay man in Nazi conquered Czech Republic, Freddy Hirsch defied the odds by providing sports training to over 4,000 youth in the Terezin Ghetto and later in Auschwitz where he even confronted Mengele. This film combines Interviews, archival materials and animation and tells us there are still many stories of the Holocaust to be told.
