Hannah Pick-Goslar remembers the Holocaust – and her friend Anne Frank.
16-year-old Hannah is waiting with her little sister Gabi for a train in which the Nazis want to transport prisoners like her from the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp to Theresienstadt.

The beautiful weather does not match the horror that is taking place around them, it does not match their state of mind; the two sisters are malnourished, sick, and do not know what awaits them.
