About Face: German and Austrian Jewish G.I.s in World War II

ABOUT FACE documents the as-yet-untold World War II story of young Jewish men who escaped certain danger at the hands of the Nazis and returned to fight them in Europe and North Africa. Told through the eyes of these men, the film chronicles the journey from Nazi victim to refugee and, finally, to Allied soldier and hero.

Lest we ever, ever forget; that we remember what happens when the government decides it knows best! If we fail to learn the lessons, we are doomed to repeat the mistakes.
