The Return
Marceline recalls the return home from the concentration camps without her beloved father and tells how memories of the horror have haunted her.
Marceline Loridan-Ivens's searingly honest memoir is about how she survived the Holocaust and is written as a letter to her father who did not survive the horrors and who she would never know as an adult. In today's episode she recalls the return home from the concentration camps without her beloved father, and tells how her memories of the horrors she experienced in the concentration camps have haunted her. Sara Kestelman reads.
