About:
Six Holocaust survivors share stories of life after the death camp.
I previously wrote about the doc for Nantucket’s program, saying:
Jon Kean’s SWIMMING IN AUSCHWITZ related the stories of six European women who faced the horrors of the Third Reich but managed to survive. His follow-up focuses on these same courageous Holocaust survivors, who detail what happened after they were liberated from Auschwitz-Birkenau in January 1945. With no homes or families left in Europe, they forged a new path, emigrating to America to begin anew, and eventually confronting the tragic past they long kept buried.
