They're tough to roll.

Give it to me, l'll help you.

My Belgian grandpa rolled 'em
one-handed in the dark.

:58:39
Your grandfather was Belgian?
:58:41
- Mine was a banker in Milan.
- ln Milan?

:58:44
Yes. l thought you were Polish.
:58:46
l'm half Belgian, half Polish.
:58:50
My mother fled the Nazis in Poland.
l was 2 years old.

:58:57
We escaped to Belgium, to Brussels.
:58:59
They caught her there.
Before she was arrested

:59:02
and sent to a camp, she entrusted me
:59:04
to my adoptive family.
:59:07
l grew up there.
l never knew l was Jewish.

:59:13
There you are.
:59:21
Need a light?
:59:27
Poor thing, when she returned
from the camp, she looked for me.

:59:31
When she found me, l didn't know her.
My own mom.

:59:35
l didn't want to go with her,
so l stayed there.

:59:41
And grew up in Belgium.
:59:44
What happened to your mother?
:59:47
She died six months later,
:59:54
of a broken heart, it seems.
