Book excerpt: Film Treatment Available to legitimate producers Brief Overview: At just 14 years old, a boy from Liverpool, England, borrows his older brother’s birth certificate to pursue a dream of adventure at sea. In 1937, he joined a ship owned by the Harrison Line, enjoying three years of life at sea before World War II erupted. In 1940, his unarmed cargo ship is attacked by a German Raider disguised as a Swedish vessel. The Raider’s crew mercilessly plunders the ship before sinking it, killing some crew members and taking the rest, including the young boy, as prisoners of war. Journey to Drancy: After months of captivity at sea, the boy and his fellow POWs are transported to occupied France and confined in Drancy, a concentration camp notorious for its inhumane conditions. There, they endure torture, starvation, and the constant fear of being sent to Auschwitz. Drancy is a place of horror, where the screams of tortured men, women, and children fill the night. After six agonizing months, the boy is transferred to various German POW camps, where he continues to struggle for survival amidst gruelling conditions and dangerous escape attempts. He remains a POW until six months after the war’s end, finally returning to a world that has drastically changed. Post-War Injustice: Forty years after the war, Germany established a compensation fund for those who suffered in the Drancy Concentration Camp, France. However, when a British MP seeks to secure the compensation that Germany awarded for the few British survivors of Drancy, the government tribunal refuses, dismissing Drancy as merely a "transit camp." This decision stands in stark contrast to overwhelming evidence from survivors, historians, and authorities in Germany, France, Israel, and beyond, who recognize Drancy's true nature as a concentration camp. A full twenty-page stenographer's transcript of the tribunal meeting is included in the book

Download or read book Nazi Labour Camps in Paris written by Jean-Marc Dreyfus and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 18 July 1943, one-hundred and twenty Jews were transported from the concentration camp at Drancy to the Lévitan furniture store building in the middle of Paris. These were the first detainees of three satellite camps (Lévitan, Austerlitz, Bassano) in Paris. Between July 1943 and August 1944, nearly eight hundred prisoners spent a few weeks to a year in one of these buildings, previously been used to store furniture, and were subjected to forced labor. Although the history of the persecution and deportation of France’s Jews is well known, the three Parisian satellite camps have been subjected to the silence of both memory and history. This lack of attention by the most authoritative voices on the subject can perhaps be explained by the absence of a collective memory or by the marginal status of the Parisian detainees - the spouses of Aryans, wives of prisoners of war, half-Jews. Still, the Parisian camps did, and continue to this day, lack simple and straightforward descriptions. This book is a much needed study of these camps and is witness to how, sixty years after the events, expressing this memory remains a complex, sometimes painful process, and speaking about it a struggle.
