They were female prisoners whose lives were hanging by a thread in Nazi extermination camps. They used to be professional musicians or have certain musical literacy. They accompany the labor team when they start work and finish work. In the morning, they performed for the victims who were about to be sent to the gas chamber, and in the evening they played music for the executioner who had completed the killing. Music gave them a lifeline, and music provided them with weapons to ridicule and resist the butcher. Surviving humiliation, they are the girl band of Auschwitz.

French singer Fania Fenelon is part of the band. Thirty years after she was born, she finally decided to face this hellish time, exorcise the memory of the concentration camp that tortured her every night, and tell the world the story of the Auschwitz girl band for the first time.

This book was published in 1976. In 1980, it was co-adapted by the author and American theater master Arthur Miller into the TV movie "Playing for Time", which won the Emmy Award for Best TV Movie.
