In the spring of 1942, the Nazis ordered the Slovak government to send slave labor and received 999 teenage Jewish girls. Their train ticket was a one-way trip to Auschwitz.

First time director/producer and author of the international bestseller 999, Heather Dune Macadam spent eleven years around the world interviewing survivors of the first transport. Digging through family and state archives, 999 reveals groundbreaking research that reveals this untold story from an all-female perspective. Those who survived endured more than three years in the death camps and ask us the question: Why were the girls the first targets?
