The incredible story of the 20 children of Bullenhuser Damm, little known in Italy until a few years ago, represents one of the most terrible manifestations of the senselessness of the Nazi policy of eliminating the Jewish people. Twenty children taken from all over Europe, aged between 5 and 12, united only by the fact that they were Jewish, embarked on a terrifying journey. The first stop was Auschwitz-Birkenau, where they were all to be deported: here their fates crossed in the terrible selection carried out by Dr. Josef Mengele: the angel of death needed 10 boys and 10 girls.
