In relation to this movie

https://www.first-loves.net/forums/view ... olfskinder

here is a documentary (in German but YT offers the possibility to have an online subtitle in other
languages).

They were called "wolf-children" - thousands of girls and boys who lost their parents in flight and expulsion in 1945 and fled in the first years under Soviet occupation in the woods, where they fought for the bare survival. They were the last victims of the Second World War. The film recapitulates the moving fate of five siblings from East Prussia.

The story of Rudi, Sieglinde, Irmgard, Waltraud and Ulli Liedke, all between six and 13 years old, faced starvation in the winter of 1946/47. Where should the siblings go? Without parents, without shelter, without food, they expected a slow death in East Prussia. In neighboring Lithuania, it was said that there should be farmers who gave food to children. But the way there was agonizing and dangerous. Driven by hunger, the children moved through the Lithuanian forests and villages, from farm to farm and begged for the necessities.

The videos on YouTube allow an online translation in different languages, no problem.

Thanks Phuzzy for the job.

That "translation" is as bad as GT
Even those autogenerated German subs were horrible

Still better than nothing imho. Sometimes, I watch movies that have no subt. at all, but before I try to get information about the story (on Wiki or elsewhere) in order to make sense of what we see. It helps, and if the cutie is really cute, then I don't mind too much if I can't understand her. Let us face it, some movies will never be translated because the "market" is just too small, it is not worth all the efforts and time.
