AFTER AUSCHWITZ

Six Jewish women who survived the Holocaust — Eva Beckmann, Erika Jacoby, Rena Drexler, Lili
Majzner, Renee Firestone and Linda Sherman — tell their extraordinary life stories. When Auschwitz was liberated in January 1945, it was the beginning of a lifelong struggle for these survivors. AFTER AUSCHWITZ recounts how the six women have built their lives since the war — getting married, immigrating to America, building careers, and raising children and grandchildren — while looking for a way to understand their trauma and loss.



In the companion film SWIMMING IN AUSCHWITZ (2^nd Release), the same six women share testimony of their time as teenagers in the concentration camp, demonstrating the power of laughter and community in the face of evil.
