:04:22
Why didn't you emigrate?
:04:25
I didn't think it was up to us to leave.
:04:29
I'm a German and I was going to
wait for the Germans to return.
:04:32
They had disappeared.
They would reappear.
:04:37
My wife calls it the nightmarish
fairy tale of our existence.
:04:42
Fear each time the doorbell rings,
fear of being maltreated...
:04:46
of daily verbal abuse,
hate, constant hunger...
:04:51
of new restrictions and the
imminent threat of death.
:04:55
Everything as horrible and cruel
as a Grimm's fairy tale.
:04:58
Maybe they'll even stick us in ovens
like Hansel and Gretel.
:05:07
And yet there were times
:05:10
when my wife and I
could forget everything.
:05:24
I'm looking for my daughter.
She's supposed to be in this building.
:05:28
She's just a child.
:05:30
Has anyone seen her?
Her name is Erika Schlesinger.
:05:34
Yes. Me.
:05:36
We were brought here together.
:05:42
A clever girl.
:05:44
That she is.
:05:46
Try talking to the
Jewish keeper tomorrow.
:05:49
He's still young, he'll help you.
:05:51
Thank you.
