La icĆ³nica abanderada de los derechos de la mujer y del compromiso con la memoria nos advierte de que solo con la esperanza de que la Shoah no se olvidade o se banalice es posible calmar el dolor de quienes la padecieron.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
SIMONE VEIL Never-Before-Published
In the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, a memorable testimony, a profoundly moving tale.
Babelio Award for Non-Fiction
In May 2006, within the frame of the project āShoah Memories,ā Simone Veil decides to tell her life story in front of a camera: the sun in Nice, the careless existence in a close-knit, republican, secular family, the war, the occupation... and on April 13th, 1944, the 71 convoy that took her, her mother, and her sister to Auschwitz-Birkenau.
With ample vivacity, much detail, and a great dose of irony, Veil recounts her eighteen months at the extermination camp: the cold, the hunger, the indignities, the friendships, the relationships between men and women, the āmarch of deathā to Bergen-Belsen, and their return, with a renovated dose of humiliation. This iconic flag-bearer for womenās rights and for the commitment to memory warns us that only by hoping the Shoah isnāt forgotten nor trivialized, the pain of those who endured it might be eased.
