    Director Sophie Nahum went to meet some of the last Holocaust survivors in their homes. She asked them about their lives, their journey during the war and their life afterwards, and how they managed to live a normal life and start a family after experiencing such a trauma. She also asked them about their vision of the world today.

    The series of interviews reminds us about the importance of passing on the memory before it is too late.

    After the virtual screening, there will be a discussion on the challenges of keeping the memory alive with Sophie Nahum, the film’s director, and Yoni Berrous, from Yad Vashem. Moderation by Rhéal LeBlanc, Chief of Press and External Relations, UN Information Service in Geneva.

    Organized by UN Geneva in collaboration with the Permanent Missions of Israel and France to the United Nations in Geneva and other international organizations, and with the support of Centre d’accueil de la Genève internationale.
