PARALLEL JOURNEYS

The two accounts are those of Helen who hides in Holland, gives up her child to the care of a non-Jewish family, and is shipped to Auschwitz (coincidentally with Anne Frank’s family); and the story of young Alfons, whose blind faithfulness to the Fuhrer and his own sense of self-importance allowed him to rise to the top of the Hitler Youth. Candid excerpts from autobiographies of both illuminate their drastically different characters and perspectives.
