This is the story of the quest for the lost remains of the Emanuel Ringelblum Archive. Ringelblum was the founder of the Jewish Aid institutes in the Warsaw Ghetto during World War Two. He documented life in the Ghetto and buried the diaries in milk cans under the Ghetto streets.
Sixty years after the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, student Uri Minzger and geologist Professor Yaacov Kurtz set out to locate the remains of the archive. Using state-of-the-art technology, they conduct excavations in the former Ghetto area, under what is now the Chinese Embassy. Although the odds for success were high, portions of the Ringelblum Archive remain undiscovered to this day
