    What I found to be heartbreaking. Imagine being a 14 year old girl (or boy). You're not sick with cancer or any other deadly illness or sickness. Yet you know, you are going to die. She wrote that before hiding her diary. I can't imagine being 14 and knowing, not thinking, but knowing, I was going to die.

    Thank you Rutka for hiding your diary and to your friend for keeping it so safe. She was so smart and determined. It shows in what person how much the world lost!!! What would she have done with her life??? What would her future generations??? So much taken by hate!!! I am so glad she named her daughter after her sister to keep her memory alive. I live in a small town in Vermont, USA nd we have a survivor that lived here and she set up teaching and spoke when she was alive at school. I had taught my daughter but when she heard it in person it is so much more powerful

      I just bought the journal/diary and read it in a day. I love history and it amazed me how I couldn’t put it down. I don’t believe most kids her age have no idea what emotions she had. She dreamed about after the war and about life and how happy she would be. It was really sad how she was losing faith. So intelligent, yet so vulnerable with the short life she had. She loved reading and there were so few books to be found. Just so sad.

    Thank you for sharing this sad but inspiring story. Rutka left behind a very important account of herself and her life experience at a time when young people were witness to terrible things and had hope for nothing but to live through the day and see another tomorrow. That her father survived Auschwiz and went on to remarry and bring more life into the world is a true miracle. For Rutka's diary to have been kept, lovingly protected, and then shared with future generations is so important. The most touching aspect of this documentary is that the sister Rutka never knew, and who would never have a chance to meet her, has had the opportunity to acquaint herself with Rutka and the homeland in which she grew up. Rutka hid her diary to keep it safe but always wanted it to be found. She wanted people to know her story. Yet she would never have dreamed that her words would eventually find their way home to family again... to be read by a sister who would have the life that she herself would never get to live.

The 6000000 Jews had no where to turn to, no home and no loyalty from the country they were living in and calling home. The polish have Poland and were amongst their people in their home.

    This is a very remarkable, sad and powerful story and the best testimony about a young Polish girl, whose only 'crime' was having been born Jewish. The saddest part of it is the state of people's mind, who get worked up about too loud background music, failing to engage with the message of this story. The words that matter are always uttered quietly amid background noise. Learning to listen and to hear is an important and valuable skill.

    This is an important story and it needs to be told, with that said it needs to be redone because the music drowns out the voices. I am very disappointed in the editing.
    So get out your machine and redo this. I look forward to seeing a new copy and I believe more people will want to watch it once they can hear the story. Like I said it's a very important story and it needs to be told over and over again, but it's hard to retell a story when you can't hear it. Sometimes the words are so low it's unintelligible.

    I persevered through the video because my great-grandfather was a rabbi from Warsaw who came to the US prior to the war and none of his relatives survived. Unfortunately, music overplaying the speaker and the translator made it impossible to hear some passages and immensely detracted from the story. It would be nice if the sound was re-engineered so that all the English words were audible. I find it amazing how astute this child was at 13, much more so than I was at that age and how she and the other children were able to face the negative changes in their world with such strength. What a wonderful legacy for her half-sister and family.

      As I get older, I realize that many factors impact hearing. Younger people think it just means everything is softer or quiet. Now, I realize that it can be difficult to distinguish sounds from one another. That may be why the blending of two voices and music makes it difficult for some to hear Rutka's message.

    I am grateful for the account of another diary of a young girl. It never ceases to amaze me how much more educated children were than they are today. I would love to read this young girls account. Unfortunately in this documentary the music being played while she is speaking in her native language and then translated into English all at the same time is disturbing. Her thoughts, and feelings, as well as her story has been drowned out by all of the background noise. If the music had been toned down or just silent during the reading would have made this far better. This diary about her life is just as important today along with Anne Frank's. As we are living in a time when all of our freedoms may disappear.
