Prisoner of Paradise (2002)

This documentary depicts the true story of actor, cabaret star and filmmaker Kurt Gerron (1897-1944), a German Jew, who was sent to a concentration camp during World War II where he was forced by Hitler's henchmen to make a 23-minute short film of Nazi propaganda called "The Fuhrer Gives a City to the Jews". For this short, the Nazis constructed a completely fake "city" at the Theresienstadt camp, with the intent of "proving" to the world that Hitler was so kind as to "give a city" to the Jews that had been exported out of Germany. After the film was completed, Gerron and most of the cast were shipped off to Auschwitz, where many died. Over 33,000 Jews died at the Theresienstadt concentration camp.
