            Skrobecka, Kay Dużyński, Anna   The film is dedicated to the memory of children who died in

            ARCHIVAL MATERIALS USED:  authors quit the classical form of historical documentary fo-
            from the collection of the State  cussed on impersonal presentation of facts. They combine
            Archive in Łódź           a documentary with a poetic form, telling the story of the
                                      ghetto with children's voices. The reality of life in the ghetto is
                                      presented through excerpts from the autobiographical prose
                                      of Sara Zyskind, Jehuda Lubiński's diary, Abram Koplowicz's
                                      texts and Abram Cytryn's poems. Archival photographs were
                                      supplemented by staged shots to create an elegiac image of
                                      the Łódź ghetto.
