program planner I gave no instructions at all to our speakers, just asked they keep to their time allowed, the rest was “Up to them”.

This edition of Connections proudly contains a YouTube link that will allow you to view the entire Time Capsule Event, held on the 15th of September.

Antoine Hobbs, Film producer/Director and his wonderful team of sound and cameramen who filmed on the day, have shared this lightly edited version of our program. A documentary/short film will be produced over the next months that will be part of Antoine’s PhD portfolio as well as destined for general public viewing.

The third-generation speakers showed us, with deep compassion, how important and meaningful their connection to the Holocaust is to them, and how grateful they are that their grandparent survived. They have accepted the role of “Keeper of the memories” with genuine pride.
