Le 28 avril 1945, des centaines de survivants des camps de concentration allemands arrivent au port de Malmö, en Suède. Alors qu’ils font leurs premiers pas en liberté, les photographes de presse suédois les filment. 70 ans plus tard, les rescapés regardent ces images d’archives pour la toute première fois et revivent les émotions de cette journée spéciale.
