YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

By 1945, the German-occupied Western Netherlands was starving. Concluding a secret truce with the Nazi leader of the Netherlands, the Allies undertook dangerous behind-the-lines missions to feed 3 million people. This is the story of Manna, Chowhound and Faust.

Special thanks to Museum Rotterdam and The Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision for archival film footage.
