This educational video takes one back to the years depicted in Catherine Hanf Noren's family album. This was a upper-middle class German Jewish family. Catherine Hanf Noren did the photography and narrative of the original book on which this kit is based. She has created here a photographic essay that describes the members of her family before and during the Holocaust. She was born in Germany in 1938, and she and her parents escaped when Catherine was only a few months old. Other members of her family remained in Germany; 26 were sent to concentration camps where 19 of them died. Her only knowledge of these relatives comes from old family photographs. Their fate during World War II symbolizes the fate of European Jewry during the Holocaust years. |
