Bearing Witness: Unforgettable Stories from the Holocaust featuring Helen Weingarten (Romania)

Helen was one of seven children. She entered Auschwitz as one of five sisters, but only four survived. Helen narrowly escaped death when the 500 women she was with were redirected from the entrance to the gas chambers and sent to Germany for slave labor.
