Paragraph 175 (2000)

Historian Klaus Müller examines the Nazis' use of Paragraph 175 (established in 1871) of the German penal code to persecute most specifically German homosexual men immediately before, during, and immediately after World War II. While upwards of one hundred thousand gay men were imprisoned or sent to concentration camps during this period, only a few thousand survived their incarceration, with only ten known still to be alive at the time of the making of this film. Some of those ten plus other homosexuals who lived through the era speak, some for the first time in a public venue in it still being such a painful memory, about what they endured in this era.
