Objects of the Holocaust: Series 1: Ariana Neumann - Copper Ring
This episode features best-selling author Ariana Neumann. Growing up in 1970s Venezuela, Ariana knew very little of her father's past. It wasn't until his death in 2001 and receiving a box of wartime documents, that she began to put the pieces of history together. This process of discovery led her to her Jewish relatives in 1930s Prague, to her grandparents' deportation to Terezin and to an incredibly brave young woman who took great risks to provide for her Jewish in-laws; a feat that led to a modest gift made in gratitude and love, from materials gathered in the most dire of circumstances.
