Summary
Videotape testimony of Eva B., who was born in Berlin, Germany in 1924. She describes German and Czech nationalism in prewar Prague; the German occupation of Prague; conditions and experiences in Theresienstadt, where she and her mother remained for two years, Auschwitz for a week, and Oederan for months; and their liberation from Theresienstadt, to which they had been transported again shortly before the end of the war. Mrs. B. speaks of her boyfriend, who did not survive the war and whose loss she still mourns; the psychological coping mechanisms which aided her survival; postwar adjustment and effects; and her husband and children.
