A short trailer for the new documentary; The Story of Gad Beck, the last known gay holocaust survivor who died before turning 89 in Berlin, June 2012. Perhaps the single most important experience that shaped his life was the wartime effort to rescue his boyfriend. Beck donned a Hitler Youth uniform and entered a deportation center to free his Jewish lover Manfred Lewin, who had declined to separate himself from his family. The Nazis would later deport the entire Lewin family to Auschwitz, where they were murdered.
