Terezin (Theresienstadt) in Bohemia was a ghetto created by the Nazis to deceive public opinion.
There were shops, a coffee house and a special bank, while the SS even made a film showing happy Jews in a Jewish city.
For the inmates it was little more than a staging post for Auschwitz. To propagate the lie the Nazis permitted a lively cultural life.
Christopher Cook visits Terezin and talks to survivors of the ghetto about art, music and theatre created by artists facing almost certain death. Producer Simon Broughton (Revised rpt)
