A film about a young person's self-assertion, grief and doubts in the face of violence and murder, but also about the power to make a successful new start as a businesswoman on the other side of the world
Exactly 15 years ago, on 10 May 2005, Sabina van der Linden-Wolanski spoke as guest of honour at the opening of the monument to the murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin. At that time she said the words: “I am the voice of the six million…”
She was the only one of her family to survive the Holocaust in eastern Poland. After the end of the war, she emigrated to Australia in 1950 via silesia and Paris, now in Poland. The fate of her family is part of the exhibition in the place of information of the Holocaust memorial. The memoirs of Holocaust survivors Sabina van der Linden-Wolanski, published by the Foundation in 2010 under the title »Destined to live“, were published in May 2015 as an audiobook, read by Dagmar Manzel, on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the Monument to the Murdered Jews of Europe.
