The story tells that in 1942, Slovak Jew Lale was forcibly sent to Auschwitz concentration camp.Lale, who can speak multiple languages, was accidentally rescued by a tattoo artist here and became a tattoo artist. His daily job is to tattoo a series of numbers on the outstretched arm of the newcomer. From then on, this person has no name and no life.Dignity is just a series of action figures here.

Lale had to leave permanent marks on the skin of thousands of prisoners, and because of this job, he was at least a little closer to death.Here, he witnessed horrific atrocities and the kindness of human nature.

He risked his life, used his privileges, and relied on the jewelry and money collected from the murdered Jews in exchange for food and medicine to extend the lives of his surviving compatriots.

One day, Lale met a young woman in the queue waiting for a tattoo, and he had to tattoo the number - 4562 - on her arm.At that moment, he silently vowed that they must survive and enjoy a happy life under the free sky...

Lale tried not to look up.He reached out and took the note handed to him.He must write these four numbers onto the girl holding the note.They already had a number on them, but it was faded.He inserted the needle into her left arm and tattooed a -4- as gently as possible.Blood oozed from the skin.But the needle didn't penetrate deep enough, so he had to trace the number again.Lale knew the pain it would cause, but she didn't flinch.They were warned—nothing to say, nothing to do.He wiped away the blood and dipped green ink into the wound.

《hurry up!“Pepin said softly.

》very good.- he whispered, and began writing the remaining three numbers - 5 6 2.When he was done, he held her arm for a moment longer and looked into her eyes again.He forced a smile.The corners of her mouth raised in response to him.Her eyes flashed before him.Looking at them, Lale's heartbeat seemed to stop suddenly, and then the feeling of his first heartbeat hit him, pounding hard, as if it was about to burst out of his chest.He lowered his head, and the ground beneath his feet seemed to shake back and forth.At this time, another note came over.
