Tamar, Josef, Bracha and Wolfgang survived the persecution and the camps. May 1945. The children do not know where their parents are. In the former Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, they now live next to English soldiers and broken concentration camp inmates. They find shelter in the villa of the Jewish Warburg family in Hamburg-Blankenese. From Hell to Paradise.

The children are waiting impatiently for the long journey to their new home in Palestine.
