Overview
1939. Tras su despiadada incursión en territorio polaco, el Ejército alemán no tardó en diseminarse hasta Bedzin, una pequeña población ubicada cerca de la frontera con Checoslovaquia. Con el tiempo los nazis decidieron confinar a los judíos en un gueto en la parte más pobre de la ciudad, para esclavizarlos como mano de obra y despúes enviarlos a campos de concentración como Auschwitz. Muerte y desolación fueron el desenlace de muchas familias, pero hubo una que logró la extraordinaria hazaña de sobrevivir gracias a una mujer…
Durante cuatro años, Dora Rembiszewski salvó a su esposo y a su pequeña hija Mira: ideó escapatorias, halló escondites, consiguió provisiones, envió mensajes clandestinos y, deportada finalmente a Auschwitz —tatuada con el número 74733—, cambió un diamante por una pieza de pan, demostrando que el amor de una madre encuentra siempre las maneras más asombrosas para velar por los suyos.
Memorias de una mujer valiente, No pierdas la esperanza recoge el sobrecogedor testimonio de una sobreviviente del Holocausto que, lejos de alimentar el desencanto del mundo, nos invita a abrazar de nuevo la fe en la humanidad.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
1939. After its ruthless incursion into Polish territory, the German army soon spread to Bedzin, a small town located near the border with Czechoslovakia. Eventually the Nazis decided to confine Jews in a ghetto in the poorest part of the city, to enslave them as labor and then send them to concentration camps such as Auschwitz. Death and desolation were the outcome of many families, but there was one that achieved the extraordinary feat of surviving thanks to a woman...
For four years, Dora Rembiszewski saved her husband and her young daughter Mira: she devised escapes, found hiding places, got supplies, sent clandestine messages and, finally deported to Auschwitz – tattooed with the number 74733 – exchanged a diamond for a piece of bread, proving that a mother's love always finds the most amazing ways to look after her own.
Memoirs of a Brave Woman, Don't Lose Hope collects the overwhelming testimony of a Holocaust survivor who, far from fueling the world's disenchantment, invites us to embrace faith in humanity again.
