Holocaust survivors meet with High School students to tell their stories in order for the students to become witnesses themselves. The students usually act out the survivors stories after 9 months of working with the survivors, however this year due to Covid-19 the entire program got cut short, the performance was cancelled and we decided to have the students tell the stories filmed at home on smartphones mixed with footage we had starting taking before covid (meant for a 5 min introductory piece to the live performance) and put together a film showcasing this experience.
