Life In Auschwitz: The Extraordinary Stories Of Six Survivors | Swimming in Auschwitz | Timeline



This documentary follows the stories of six female Holocaust survivors, each a former prisoner at Auschwitz-Birkenau. The women, from various countries, arrived at the camp with different backgrounds — one was the daughter of labor activists, another was studying to be nurse and another was the child of a Prague industrialist. As the film splices current interviews with archival footage, each woman explains how she was able to remain hopeful and to survive in the face of unimaginable horror.

  1. A story as old as time…the immigrants move in and squeeze the natives until there is a violent backlash. The world over. Sick and sad for everyone. But everyone just wants a better world and no one care who they walk over.

  2. Wow swimming in Auschwitz. It also had a theatre, an orchestra, library, movie theatre, massive kitchen and bakery, sports teams. Not what you'd expect to find at a death camp. For a death camp there sire were a lot of survivors who lived to tell us it was a death camp.

  3. Funnily enough, both the Red Cross and Vatican, two neutral organizations during the war, had access to all these supposed "death camps" and to the inmates. They did not find any of the claims made about mass killings to be true.

    After the war the Rockefeller foundation made a report to the government that debunking of allied lies could not be allowed to take place, like what happened after WW1, and paid university historians and journalists to enforce the narrative.

  4. Next do one about the conditions during the Weimar Republic that caused people to demand change. We never hear that story. Maybe tie in comparisons to how the modern world has changed over the past 20 years. It might raise a few eyebrows. 😐

  5. Because the USA has a 200 year old history of harassment, murder and a coverup of Jews in the USA, we demand Congress pay each American Jew $2 million each + $200k/year for life, ok..

  6. As I see myself today, after the last 3 years when I have lost almost all that I thought that. I valued, that màde me a person I am not ashamed to cry because it means that, at least, I still have emotions.

  7. ‘Should our murderers be victorious, should they write the history of this war, our destruction will be presented as one of the most beautiful pages of world history, and future generations will pay tribute to them as dauntless crusaders. Their every word will be taken as gospel. Or they may wipe out our memory altogether, as if we had never existed…’
    and instead they took on the role of the crusaders, so that someone again could write beautiful pages of history in the ghettos of palestine, gaza and syria
