Description: This is the gripping true story of Irene Hizme and her twin brother, Rene Slotkin. Sent to Auschwitz when they were barely six years old, they were among the 3,000 twins subjected to Josef Mengele's experiments in his quest to create a Master Aryan race. More than just a record of one of the Holocaust's darkest chapters, the film is about love and courage, demons and saviors, the complexity of the human psyche and how rare individuals are able to rise above inhumane circumstances with their emotional selves intact.
