86 Jews selected in the camp of Auschwitz were deported in the summer of 1943 to the Natzweiler-Struthof camp where a gas chamber was specially equipped to kill them. August Hirt, director of the Anatomical Institute of Strasbourg, wanted a collection of Jewish skeletons, to keep track of this "race" who "personify a repulsive, yet characteristic subhumanity" (according to the words of August Hirt). How did this cynical project came to life? What happened to the 86 Jews gazed for this anatomical collection?

But this story is above all about the struggle of a German journalist, Hans-Joachim Lang trying to give back an identity to these men and women who had been reduced to a list of registration numbers. The tireless search to find the name of the 86.
