Multi award-winning documentary about Michael Bornstein, a Holocaust survivor.
Michael was only four years old when the Nazis sent him and his family to the Auschwitz concentration camp. He survived but chose to hide his story for over 70 years. After he decided to start talking, a new world of possibilities opened up. His life story now helps educate young people about the past — revealing the signs of bigotry in today’s society while drawing parallels with the discrimination prevalent in 1930s Germany.
