About the Museum Kit

The museum kit contains:

  • Authentic photographs, incorporated into nineteen posters along with one introductory poster. The posters form an exhibition entitled "Return to Life - The Holocaust Survivors: From Liberation to Rehabilitation"

  • A sixty-minute videocassette of the film Retum to Life, describing, through Interviews and documentary excerpts, how five survivors rebuilt their lives.

  • A booklet containing an article on the Holocaust survivors, excerpts from eyewitness testimony, maps, a bibliography, proposals for activity around the exhibition, and instructions for viewing the film and discussing it after the viewing.

    • Organization of the Study Envionment

    The posters are numbered and classified by subject. Each subject represents a phase in the path back to life, from liberation day until the survivors emigrated overseas or made their way to Palestine.

    The posters (each 33 x 48 cm.) are designed to be hung on a wall or placed on a table for work purposes.

    To hang the posters, a display area large enough to contain them all should be set aside. This area may be a corridor, a classroom, a clubroom, or the walls of the library. The pictures should be suspended consecutively, in numerical order, in the direction of movement (preferably along one wall or two adjacent ones), at eye-level, at least twenty centimeters apart.

    Free access to the posters should be guaranteed.
