On The Spot: Children Of The Enemy

SINOPSIS

People who were born in the wrong place at the wrong time. As an infant or as a child they had to survive the darkest moments of the history of the 20th century: in the Second World War, in Communist work camps, in the Vietnam War, in the most notorious prison of the Khmer Rouge, in the Sarajevo Siege or in a North Korean prison camp.
How did they survive? As adults, how did they come to terms with their past and the burdensome history they experienced? What can they do with the miracle that they survived?
This character-driven documentary film series is set in the present, but its theme is closely tied to history: we explore how the circumstances of our birth influence our lives, whether traumas can be inherited and what strategies different people choose to process their past.
