It is April 1944. Nineteen-year-old Ginette Kolinka arrives at the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp. Her father and little brother are immediately gassed. Ginette is selected as a worker. She survives. It is October 2020. Ninety-five-year-old Ginette takes advantage of a lull in the COVID-19 epidemic to accompany a group visiting Birkenau one last time. As a farewell- she brings with her a journalist- France Info's Victor Matet- and a comic strip writer- J-D Morvan. From this trip a comic book is born. Ginette tells of her life before the war- how she discovered she was Jewish- how her family fled Paris before she and her father were denounced. She tells the story of the camp; completely- honestly- without seeking pity. We see her today- how she still shares her story with the world- how she still stands and bears witness.
