Around 100,000 gay and lesbian people were imprisoned, tortured and murdered during the Nazi regime in Germany. Writers and directors Rob Epstein (Oscar winner for "The Times of Harvey Milk") and Jeffrey Friedman trace the fate of homosexuals in the Third Reich - a group of victims long forgotten. Contemporary witnesses to the cruelties of the Nazi regime tell their life stories, which are marked by denial, exclusion and the unconditional will to survive.
