Note sull'episodio

In this week’s episode, coinciding with Yom HaShoah, Sam and Alex look at Here There Are Blueberries by Moisés Kaufman and Amanda Gronich.

Here There Are Blueberries tells the story of an album donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum containing never-before-seen photographic evidence of Nazi officers and staff at the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. In the play, Museum archivist Rebecca Erbelding and her colleagues begin to unravel the shocking story behind the images. As the album makes headlines around the world, a businessman in Germany sees the photos online and recognizes his own grandfather. He begins a journey of discovery that will take him into the lives of other Nazi descendants—and into a reckoning with his family’s past and his country’s history.
