Lisa Derman's Tribute Video

This documentary, based on family photographs and interviews tells the story of Lisa and Aron Derman, young polish-Jewish couple that escaped the Vilna ghetto in 1941 to join the partisans. Only 15 and 18 at the time, they fought and survived in the forests of Lithuania until the war was over. For weeks they traveled, making their way across mountains and borders. Finally they reached Italy, and there they met the Jewish Brigade. Few in their families survived. For many years lisa devoted her life to education and learning about the Holocaust and humanity.
