Show detail Hide detail

In March 2000, Tokyo Holocaust Education Resource Centre’s director Fumiko Ishioka received a child’s suitcase from the Auschwitz museum to be displayed in the centre. The suitcase bore a name, Hana Brady, and her date of birth. Since the main clients of the Education Resource Centre were children interested by the story of an actual Jewish child, Ishioka started a search that led her to the concentration camps of Terezin in the Czech Republic and Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland, and to finally trace Hana’s brother, George Brady, who survived both camps and settled in Toronto. He was happy to come to Japan and tell his sister’s story to children. The whole process led to the writing of the book “Hana’s Suitcase” by Karen Levine. Intertwined with Ishioka’s research are interviews with George Brady and other friends and relatives of Hana Brady and shows George and his daughter’s journey to the Czech Republic, Poland and Japan. Re-enacted scenes depict their childhood and their life in the camps. <92mn 52s>
