The filmmakers relay the experiences and painful recollections of these now-elderly survivors of the rails.

Sixty years later, the filmmakers transport their subjects back to the tracks, where the surging impact of sound and movement resuscitates memories of a shattered adolescence and devastating rite of passage.
