Albert Dekker in ' THE STORY OF
NICOLAS MITETICH '
Written by Stanley Wright
The story of Nicolas Mitetich , a refugee in Camp Parsch, near Salzburg, reflects the problems that have faced and continue to face the tens of thousands of refugees in Europe's camps. His desire for a normal life is common to them all, the material conditions under which he was compelled to live for many years are true in all camps. As such, the programme is a human document of life seen through the eyes of one of the uprooted beings for whom help came too late.
Produced by Gerald Kean and Erik Valters and recorded in the studios of United Nations Radio in New York
