Kriegie Kids: On Our Fathers’ Trail

Kriegie Kids: On Our Fathers’ Trail

Five strangers are brought together about 80 years after WWII, to follow the paths their fathers endured as German prisoners of war. They call themselves “Kriegie Kids,” children of US airmen who were shot down and taken. They follow their fathers’ trail through Germany and Poland, learning about closely guarded secrets. Their search for the truth honors the impact events have had on generations.
