Zmijewski decided to persuade a former World War II concentration camp prisoner to "renew" his prisoner number, tattooed on the man's forearm. We see Zmijewski talking to Józef Tarnawa, a 92-year-old former prisoner of the concentration camp at Auschwitz, in a tattoo parlour. Tarnawa answers questions about life in the camp. He is still hesitant, unsure whether a "restored" number will still be authentic.

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
