Beschreibung
Nine Holocaust survivors and victims of Nazi tyranny [Jews, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Sinti, and a political prisoner] from 5 different countries (Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, USA) have ‚taken the stand‘ to give their testimony as a legacy for future generations.
All in all, they were interned in fifty-four camps or institutions, they were imprisoned for 44 years, and all together they can provide outstanding life experience totaling 806 years. Those whose voices are heard range from an average housewife to active Holocaust teachers and even the subjects of Oscar-winning films. Survivors were interviewed according to a catalog of questions, unique in the world, consisting of questions from schoolchildren and students from 61 schools and universities in 30 countries on 6 continents.
