Details

Holocaust survivor Ninetta Feldman remembers fleeing her aunt’s house and hiding in an ancient Greek fortress to keep safe from the falling bombs during World War II. As life grew more dangerous for Jews living in their town of Agrinio, Ninetta and her family sought refuge in a remote mountain village controlled by the Greek resistance. To evade Nazi German patrols in the village, they often retreated further up the mountain, hiding in caves and in the forest. Then, one day in 1944, they witnessed Nazi troops burning the village below, their last safe haven. Watch to discover what happened next to Ninetta and her family.
