A young girl sees her neighborhood transformed into a ghetto populated by skeletal figures both alive and dead. This work takes you on a journey of both loss and endurance, from a carefree adolescence in upper-middle class Warsaw to the horrors of the Final Solution. It illustrates the historical responsibilities of the survivors' descendants.
