Located nearly 80 kilometres north of Berlin, Germany, the former municipality of Ravensbrück was home to a prison between 1939 and 1945 that became a concentration camp designed specifically for women. It was built by order of Heinreich Himmler, a high dignitary of the Third Reich and head of the SS. Of the more than 130,000 people who were deported there, almost 90,000 never returned. Based on witnesses, international experts and computer-generated images, the document reveals the atrocities committed in Ravensbrück.

In a small chapel in Zug, Switzerland, a legend tells of a hidden treasure. There is only one rule: remain silent, and in time, the treasure will be yours.

Perhaps we have forgotten how to remain silent, and with that, we risk losing one of the last places that still allows it. Gottlos Beten follows the decline of a sacred place.
