"You're free, go home." Not your typical Holocaust story, After Auschwitz explores what happens in the wake of tragedy. Six extraordinary women from different countries and backgrounds strive to rebuild their lives and make a fresh start in Los Angeles. Each woman gets married, raises children, and even became American, but continued to struggle with the concept of home. Reflecting the changing face of the United States in the second half of the 20th century, their stories of survival—sometimes heartbreaking, but always inspiring—capture what it means to move from trauma and towards life.
