"May Your Memory Be Love" - The Story of Ovadia Baruch

In March 1943, twenty-year-old Ovadia Baruch was deported together with his family from Greece to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Upon arrival, his extended family was sent to the gas chambers. Ovadia struggled to survive until his liberation from the Mauthausen concentration camp in May 1945. While in Auschwitz, Ovadia met Aliza Tzarfati, a young Jewish woman from his hometown, and the two developed a loving relationship despite inhuman conditions. This film depicts their remarkable, touching story of love and survival in Auschwitz, a miraculous meeting after the Holocaust and the home they built together in Israel.
This film is part of the "Witnesses and Education" project, a joint production of the International School for Holocaust Studies and the Multimedia Center of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In this series, survivors recount their life stores - before, during and after the Holocaust. Each title is filmed on location, where the events originally transpired.
With the generous support of the Adelson Family Charitable Foundation.
Israel 2008, 47 minutes, DVD (unrestricted region)
Hebrew with English subtitles.

  • does anyone know how I can find out who did the music for this video????

  • Is there a way I can use this for a project? I'm making a documentary on Auschwitz, and this would be perfect...

  • can you send me this video please. i need it for a project.

  • It´s so sad that there are about 80.000 holocaust survivors in Israel living in poverty. After the hell they went through, the minimum thing the state can do is ensuring that they live their last years with dignity.

  • I met an Auschwitz survivor this summer in Israel on the street. I asked her as many questions as I could.

    This is a very brave, strong man. I wish him many more years of health and joy.

  • Never Forget
