On March 22, 1942, the director of the Fürth orphanage, Dr. Isaak Hallemann, his wife Klara, his daughters Eva and Beate-Esther and the 33 orphans were deported to Izbica and from there to the concentration camp Belzec. They never returned. From their fate the idea of a dance project, an homage to the children, was born. A celebration of life and a celebration of encounter beyond all borders, languages, countries and religions. 33 choreographers from all over the world are invited to symbolically adopt one of the orphans. On their behalf, 33 dancers came to Fürth danced for the Fürth orphanage children.
