Holocaust : a pre-war German Jewish family |
| Abstract |
These rare home movies capture the life of a Jewish family in Münster, Germany, in the years leading up to second world war. The movies were shot by Siegfried Gumprich, a grain merchant who had fought for Germany in the First World War. He filmed his wife, children and friends playing together happily but behind the scenes, Nazi anti-Jewish legislation was destroying the family business, leaving them with no income. We know that this family was forced to flee to the Dutch border where a Catholic priest, helped them to escape to England. Their friends were killed at a concentration camp. |
