Leon Z. Holocaust testimony
Streszczenie
Videotape testimony of Leon Z., who was born in Poland. He speaks of the German takeover in 1941; daily incidents in the ghetto such as a massacre of fifty people in the town center while an orchestra was playing; and his escape from the ghetto and hiding in the woods with his brother to avoid a round-up for deportation. He relates his later transfer to a labor camp, where he was reunited with his brother; avoiding a selection in the camp by hiding in a barrel and being spared by the Nazi who found him there; his escape from the camp back to the ghetto; and his escape from the ghetto to join a group of Red Army partisans in White Russia.
