Compelling, beautiful, sad testomony of a community marked by tragedy
29 October 2020
This is a heartbreakingly beautifully sad depiction of a community of Holocaust survivors who meet every year to spend the summers at the Four Seasons Lodge, a colony they share and try to save together. They're all in their 70s and 80s, they play cards, they dance and sing, they drink and eat and they kiss and hug.

The stories of the community and of the individual people who are interviewed are so compelling, so moving, so harrowing that most of the people cannot speak about what happened to them in the camps and can not tell the stories of what they witnessed. Yes, there is so much more than survival, there's hope, friendship, family and a love for life.

This is one of the testimonies of our humanity that everybody, all generations should watch at any age, anytime, and many times.
