Narration: Eight-three trains left Westerbork during the war for the east - for the death camps of Auschwitz and Sobibor. On September the third, 1944, they loaded many of the Jews in Westerbork onto the very last transport to Auschwitz. One thousand and nineteen men, women, and children, amongst them the group of eight from the secret annex. For most it was to be their last sight of Holland.
