Шанс уцелеть

Julia Bernstein introduces the publication of three interviews from the archive of the Shoah Visual History Foundation founded by Steven Spielberg in 1994. Located on the premises of the University of Southern California, the archive currently includes about 52,000 interviews with Holocaust survivors. Bernstein has selected and translated three interviews with Polish Jews, who had been deported to the inner territories of the USSR after the Soviet annexation of parts of Poland in 1939, and thus escaped the Holocaust. She introduces the archive and explains her choice of the documents, two of which she has translated from English into Russian.
