After Auschwitz

Six Jewish women who survived the Holocaust - Eva Beckmann, Erika Jacoby, Rena Drexler, Lili Majzner, Renee Firestone and Linda Sherman - tell their extraordinary life stories. When Auschwitz was liberated in January 1945, it was the beginning of a lifelong struggle for these survivors. AFTER AUSCHWITZ recounts how the six women have built their lives since the war - getting married, immigrating to America, building careers, and raising children and grandchildren - while looking for a way to understand their trauma and loss.
