Last Steps (Alive).
"Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” - Sir Winston Churchill.
On 2 March 1942, the Minsk Jewish ghetto's nursery or orphanage was "liquidated"; the children were buried alive in a pit after the murderers had tossed them candy.
Each white figure represents an innocent person who was forced to walk step by step to a freshly prepared pit. Shots killed many and many fell to the pit but others were buried alive. Based on the eyewitness stories the soil was "crying" for days and nights...
That was implementation of Hitler's "final solution".
Now, it is 2022, eighty years after - does it sound familiar?
