5 remaining children in the concentration camp are saved by the words of a 7 1/2 year old.

Chief Rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau is reunited with one of those 5 children at a Holocaust Memorial event. Sam Hill reminds Rabbi Lau that he was present for his first speech when the Nazi commander of the concentration camp declared that children are unproductive and a waste of the bread that could be going to German soldiers. Young Lau's words prevented that from being their final day.
