At the end of the Second World War, following negotiations with the State of Israel and with Jewish organizations around the world, the German government decided to compensate the Jewish survivors of the concentration camps by offering them a spa treatment every two years. The shooting of this documentary film, which takes place mainly in the town of Evian-les-Bains, features the collective confrontation and respective testimonies of former Jewish deportees, including Solange Najman, the director's own mother.
