About film
Liga Terezin tells about the Jewish prisoners in the Ghetto Theresienstadt, who played soccer on an improvised field. While watching matches played by professionals and amateurs alike, thousands of prisoners could briefly escape their hunger, sickness, and death, and forget about the trains that were carrying people from the transit point to the East.
