As they left Germany in the 1930s, it seemed like there was no going back for these Jewish women. It was a time full of humiliation and exclusion, of loss, and the threat to one's life was real. By fleeing, they escaped an uncertain destiny. Instead, their futures lay in countries with languages they never mastered speaking, and with cultures that remained foreign to them. They forged new existences, started families and came to terms with the changes life brought them. Germany couldn't possibly be their homeland anymore after the Holocaust, so why did they return?These women have suppressed a lot of what they experienced and suffered. Yet in telling their very personal stories, memories of the past awaken. Their voices are those of witnesses to that time, and they speak for a lost generation.
