With the help of their loyal guide dogs, six blind Israelis travel on the March of the Living, a program that brings students from all over the world to Auschwitz to commemorate Holocaust Remembrance Day. They march arm in arm with Holocaust survivors from Auschwitz to Birkenau, and are joined by thousands of people marching against prejudice, intolerance and hate.

The film highlights two historical facts: The first victims of Nazi Germany were the disabled, and the Nazis often trained dogs to attack and kill their prisoners.
