But when one of his friends shares a bold plan to rise up and destroy the buildings of death, he finds a renewed sense of purpose.These three strangers are now part of an attempt to achieve the impossible without knowing each other.To rise up, destroy the Auschwitz-Birkenau death factory, and escape to tell the world about it.Based on actual events, Tracks to Freedom is a story of bravery and the battle to retain one’s humanity in a place where there is none.
