During World War Two, Croatian fascists tortured and killed tens of thousands of Serbs, Jews and Roma people in the Jasenovac concentration camp. We hear from a survivor. Also, the fate of Falun Gong in China, from a point of view of a practitioner. Plus, the failure of Camp David negotiations, the French doctor who pioneered water births, and the life and death of the legendary Eva Peron.
