Sponsored in part by the Carlsbad Educational Foundation, Carlsbad High Schools students involved with CHSTV are producing a documentary about the holocaust entitled "We Must Remember". Students traveled to Germany in April 2008 and returned again in August 2008 to Dachau, Germany and Auschwitz in Poland to continue filming this "documentary within a documentary". The HD film will focus on the experiences of 16 students as they discover the horror of this time period through interviews with survivors.
