In October 1940, Sala Garncarz was sixteen years old and living with her large family in Poland close to the German border. When her older sister was ordered to report to a Nazi forced labor camp for six weeks, young Sala volunteered to take her place. This true and victorious survival story of her five years in seven different camps is even more remarkable because she was able to conceal over 350 letters received from family and friends during her imprisonment. Sala's letters, donated to the Dorot Jewish Division of The New York Public Library in 2005, are not only a significant addition to Holocaust research, but have also been called, "the greatest find since Anne Frank's diary." Sala's story is one of beauty, courage and impact. Area premiere.
