“Memoria” is an absolutely unique historical document containing the testimony of Italian Jews who were deported to Auschwitz. Ninety interviews by Marcello Pezzetti and Liliana Picciotto were conducted in the 1990s with the last survivors of the deportations.
A firsthand account by those who experienced the full extent of the Italian Shoah; the memories of those who were directly subjected to humanity’s greatest madness and will bear its marks for the rest of their lives.
