Synopsis

Based on a little-known chapter of World War II history, The Sooner You Forget dramatizes the struggles of a young American soldier to not only survive a Jewish labor camp, but also to later reconcile what happened to him at the hands of the Nazis--and his own government.

Soon to be eighteen, Charlton Buckley is looking to escape the grips of his dead-end Wisconsin hometown and abusive father. When his dreams of joining a Major League Baseball team fall short, he channels his enthusiasm toward piloting for the Air Force. His youthful optimism is quickly burnt away when his plane is shot down on his first mission, causing him to be captured and sent to a German stalag. As the Nazis' war efforts start to fail, though, they pull only Jewish soldiers from the Allied ranks and transport them to a secret labor death camp. Despite his Christian background, Buckley is taken, and there he experiences horrors beyond imagination. Navigating trauma, faith, love, and loyalty, The Sooner You Forget is the story of one man's search to find true liberation decades after imprisonment.
