Story
Amon Göth was a mass murderer. As the commander of Plaszow concentration camp, he killed prisoners at will, shooting them from the balcony of his villa overlooking the camp. His daughter, Monika, was born in 1945, by which time her father had been hanged for his crimes. It was not until 1983, when her mother gave a television interview, that Monika discovered the horrible truth about her father. Soon after, her mother took an overdose of sleeping tablets. For Matthias Kessler’s documentary, augmented with archive footage, Monika Göth gave a two-day interview in which she faces up to her own life history.
