Following Shira’s Journey – A Greek Jewish Odyssey: The untold story of the Greek Holocaust. More than 60,000 Greek Jews perished in the Nazi concentration camps, and yet in the aftermath of the Second World War, the Greek Jewish wartime experience was relegated to an attic of denial and neglect. Following Shira’s Journey uncovers an overlooked and tragic aspect of Jewish history, featuring interviews with Holocaust survivors, second and third generation survivors, and other community members, all of whom are fighting to keep their tradition and culture alive.
