Synopsis:
“They only take away the criminals," said Zilli Reichmann's father when the National Socialists arrested the first Sinti and Roma people. Because he was fatally mistaken, 95-year-old Sinti woman tells her story: of the murder of her daughter, her parents, sister, their children and many relatives in the gas chambers of Auschwitz, her own struggle for survival and the meaning of life.
