What is The Relief of Belsen about? Toggle content

In the midst of World War II, a small British ambulance unit was diverted from the frontlines to address a growing medical crisis at Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. As they entered the camp, they were met with a scene of unimaginable horror - thousands of prisoners, mostly Jewish women and children, were suffering from typhus and starvation. The British soldiers, led by Lt. Col. James Johnston, were tasked with containment and treatment, but they soon realized that their efforts were futile in the face of such massive suffering. Despite the challenges, they continued to work tirelessly, risking their own lives to provide relief to the inmates. Through powerful dramatization and original footage, 'The Relief of Belsen' tells the story of the heroic efforts of these soldiers and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unspeakable tragedy.
