"Die Kinder der Flucht" is a three-part German docudrama that portrays the harrowing experiences of children and young people during the final months of World War II and its aftermath in Eastern Europe. The series weaves together dramatized reenactments, archival footage, and poignant interviews with real-life survivors to tell three distinct yet interconnected stories of displacement, survival, and resilience.
