ouise-Salomé said that “His films addressed critical issues: fascism, the military, the functioning of power and its perversity, the dangers of dogmatism, racial segregation, mental manipulation and rape. In other words, the many ways in which power, in whatever form it takes, seizes and appropriates the psychic reality of the individual. His preoccupation with freedom drives both the content of his cinema and his bold way of presenting it. His perception of what constitutes freedom is the secret dimension that animates his work.” (Leo Barraclough, Variety)

Aided by medical professionals who subscribed to theories of eugenics, Nazi officials declared persons with perceived or actual mental and/or physical disabilities as “life unworthy of life” (lebensunwertes Leben). These individuals were targeted for both state-sanctioned and decentralized euthanasia programs, under which an estimated 200,000 perished. Some of the physicians who participated in the official state euthanasia program, known euphemistically as T4, were central to the development of technologies used to murder other groups in concentration and extermination camps.

Susan’s parents used their life savings to smuggle the children out of Nazi Germany—sending them to live in France.
