          Hope:




          Doctor Friedman from the Holocaust center didn’t just bring the

          diary with her, she also brought a little bit of hope with her.

          ‘We thought that she died, but the we found a document which


          says that she was alive in September of 1945, and it’s signed by

          her.

          ‘Maybe she recovered, maybe”

          ‘So that’s why we’re thinking, this was written almost 9 months


          after the end of the war, and it certifies that she was alive, while

          you thought that she was dead.

          ‘Is it possible that she didn’t die in the hospital?’


          ‘We don’t know. Why is there documentation of her being alive

          in September? What happened to her? Did she pass away, or

          didn’t she? We just don’t know.’


          ‘If it’s like this, I don’t know’

          67 years after last seeing her, Esther and Mina will now try and

          look for Rivka. The odds are slim, they know, but they hang on


          to  the  diary  that  she  left  behind,  a  14  years  old  diary  that

          manages to show an entire life.




          ‘I am nothing but a small dot that’s hard to see even through

          a microscope. But, I laugh at the whole world- I am Jewish,

          I’m poor in the Ghetto, and I don’t know what will happen


          with  me  tomorrow.  And  despite  that,  I  laugh  at  the  world,

          because I have a something very big to lean back on- faith.’
