While imprisoned in Auschwitz-Birkenau and Ravensbrück, 13-year-old Ruth Krautwirth maintains a sense of dignity even as she struggles to stay alive. As a grandmother, Ruth realizes she must tell her story. Her words, captured in letters to her granddaughter, convey her life story. It begins with the rise of antisemitism in Nazi Germany during her youth. Then, with vivid imagery and heartbreaking detail, Ruth describes the unfathomable experiences of two years in concentration camps with her mother. In her search for meaning and understanding after the war, Ruth emphasizes the importance of remembrance. Her testimony serves as a warning to prevent the recurrence of genocide.
