At age seventeen, following her liberation from Bergen-Belsen Bracha Ghilai came to Israel to start her life over. As part of her healing process she established a puppet theatre. Sixty years later, surrounded by her puppets, Bracha recalls the dire events of her youth. Through a mix of storytelling, puppety and archival photographs we experience the anguish of her narrative while she unlocks chapters from her painful past. Her stories range from the heartwrenching description of her separation from her nephew, Nisan, to the powerful and poignant account of incredible power of endurance, survival and the guilt that accompanies it.
