On Stalin’s order of 16 December 1944, an estimated 70,000 ethnic Germans in Romania were deported to Soviet forced labour camps as a form of World War II reparations. Many deportees died from the harsh labour conditions in freezing temperatures and from insufficient nutrition. Marc Schroeder (LU) met with 40 of the last living survivors. In ORDER 7161 he recounts their stories and memories through a combination of witness portraits, archival and contextual images as well as an important selection of recorded testimonials. This book not only bears witness to an often overlooked chapter of European history, but it also provides insight into the ‘cultural memory’ of this collective trauma.

Marc Schroeder (LU) started his professional career in investment banking in 1998. He first worked in London, later in New York, where the capitalist joyride came to an abrupt halt as the credit crunch hit the banking sector. The redundancy came as a welcome opportunity for Marc to start pursuing what he had always wanted to do: photography.
