They were young sweethearts and neighbours prior to the war. Their experiences inspired the film UNDYING LOVE, directed by my renowned documentary film-maker sister, Helene Klodawsky, about stories of love and marriage that emerged from the Holocaust.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Description:<\/strong> My parents met as teenagers in L\u00f3d\u017a, Poland. When the Nazis invaded, my father escaped to Russia, while my mother remained in the L\u00f3d\u017a Ghetto with her mother and younger sister. My mother&#8217;s mother was murdered by the Nazis in 1942. My mother and her sister were sent to Auschwitz in Sept 1944 where my mother&#8217;s sister was murdered. My mother was a slave laborer, sent first to Bergen Belson and then to Neuengamme concentration camp in Salzwedel Germany.<\/p>\n<p>At war\u2019s end, while at Braunschweige Displaced Persons camp in Germany, my mother made contact with a surviving uncle living in Munich Germany. She knew little of him but was overjoyed by the prospect of finding a living family member. With high hopes for connection, care and loving warmth she traveled to the other side of Germany to see him. But the uncle turned out to be a terrible disappointment; he was cold and unresponsive. She left after one night, travelling back to the DP camp by train. This was during a time when millions of refugees were criss-crossing Europe, overwhelming trains and roads. During a train stop in Frankfurt my mother became ill and quickly left the terribly crowded train, leaving all her belongings, to go to the bathroom. When she returned the train and everything she owned were gone. While she was standing there not sure of how to get back to the DP camp, another train arrived; who should emerge but my father. After not seeing one another for five years, they rediscovered one another and rekindled their romance. Eventually they decided to come to Canada and marry.<\/p>\n<p>This story was told many times in my family but when my father died, the retelling took on a particular significance and it inspired my sister to think about this story as the basis of a film about love, post-war marriage and the Holocaust. As one character in Undying Love says, \u201cHitler was our matchmaker\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Voyage to Ottawa:<\/strong> This documentary film was directed by my sister and produced by Ina Fichman of Intuitive Pictures. It received much critical acclaim, has been widely distributed, televised around the world, and has received the following awards:<\/p>\n<p>Best Feature Documentary, Warsaw Jewish Film Festival<br \/>\nBest Documentary Screenplay, Writer\u2019s Guild of Canada<br \/>\nBest Camera, Canadian Society of Cinematographers<br \/>\nBest Television History Documentary in Canada, Gemini Awards<br \/>\nBest Humanitarian Film, Columbus International Film Festival, Chris Award<br \/>\nFinalist, Best Documentary of the Year, Prix G\u00e9meaux<br \/>\nSpecial Mention, Jerusalem International Film Festival<\/p>\n<p><strong>To view the film, click on the following link:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cultureunplugged.com\/documentary\/watch-online\/play\/9182\/Undying-Love\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.cultureunplugged.com\/documentary\/watch-online\/play\/9182\/Undying-Love<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Click the photo for a larger image.
