Hana

A multi-generational family story showing the impact of WWII on Jews in then-Czechoslovakia. We meet Mira, a little nine year-old rebel who loses her family due to a typhus epidemic, and then needs make a new home with her quiet, strange aunt Hana, who is a living shadow of the atrocities of the past. We then travel back in time and learn how the previous generations acknowledged the neighbor country's warning bells too last. How can you leave a place that has been your home for your whole life? Living peacefully alongside others, never suspecting they could turn on you? Eventually Hana's path leads to the Theresienstadt camp and eventually Auschwitz.

Intermingled family fates, love stories, and one of the darkest histories there is.
