NOBODY GIVES YOU ANYTHING FOR THE PAST

Za minulost ti nikdo nic nedá

This documentary is the story of a man who survived the Holocaust as if by miracle. It may sound a little odd when a person uses the phrase my cemetery Johann Peter Fuchs of Ludwigsburg, Germany, means the Jewish cemetery in Třítěž, which he had set in order after November 1989. His ancestors are buried there, those who did not die in concentration camps. After the war he was not accepted by the Germans nor by the Czechs. And having married a German, he cannot even be buried at a Jewish cemetery with her.
