Hi, it's Daniel Lombroso, the director of "Nina & Irena." I've devoted my career to exposing far-right extremism, beginning with my feature film, "White Noise," where I spent four years embedded with white nationalists. Now, I turn the camera on my own family and their survival in the Holocaust. Sadly, the film feels more relevant than ever. Ask me anything!
Thank you for sharing your film, Daniel.
Where can I watch White Noise.
sad that now its all happening to Palestinians
Thank You, Daniel.
You are so lucky to have such a strong Grama, her story and even her reluctance to tell it really touched me. Has she ever done a shoa foundation interview? I would love to know more about her life before during and after the war✌️
"We are all born little, adorable children. What happens? What happens? What happens to people to people that they can become worse than animals?" I adore this woman. Thank you for spending time with her to make this film 🤍
Nina has a depth in her eyes and some sadness still glimmers. I am so glad you shared your gran with the world, especially at this time, when people are intent on repeating historic sins.
She did not need to be used in this way, retraumatized to make someones video
Stories need to be told. Otherwise, they get lost, and as we are seeing today, history is repeating it's self.😢
@@lhl9010stop projecting. This is exactly how legacies are passed to the next generations, instead of erased and forgotten.
I hold my grandparents traumatic childhood stories and war experiences in the same way. People need to know it wasn’t for nothing as they age (their suffering or struggle) that their grandchildren will carry it ‘s lessons forward and do better. She imparting wisdom. Wisdom is not born out of the happy unchallenging times.
The parting words of grandparents ring truer and louder in our ears the closer we get to their age.
@@lhl9010There was no coercion of Irene. Don’t you understand sometimes people just need to be asked, to be heard? Mon Dieu, has your life been so sheltered you have no understanding of what a trauma survivor needs? You know nothing of war. Your virtue signaling is misguided. Listen. Learn.
Broke my heart when she started to cry about the human race. I do believe its time for us as a race to go. Too much damage as is already.
In her senior years she is still sharp as a whip with a unique sense of humor
When she spoke about how humans are to each other, I cried, maybe its time for for us to go “.
Ikr??
Mr. Daniel Lombroso, your grandmother, bless her is so wonderfully uncomplicated and psychologically at ease, she serves as an example to us that we must live with courage and dignity. Best, best wishes.
Thank you so much, Sally. She really is wonderful.
But she also wants Daniel and his brother to have children...weird 🤔
How is she❤

@@soccerguy325 You can't always take people's musings literally.
The pain in her eyes. She has seen first hand the evil of humans. There is no other way to describe it.
I'm with Grandma, I don't understand it either, what people do to people.
What a wonderful noble woman. No words can describe what she went through. Such dignity and grace. Blessings!
Your grandmother is such a beautiful lady inside and out. You told her story beautifully, keep creating ❤
The human condition is capable of infinite kindness and love and at the same time horrific thoughts and actions.
It never surprises me. This woman's pragmatism is her way to deal with life that has included both.
This moved me to tears thinking of my own parents going through WWII in Europe. I’m first generation American. My parents overcame so much so 7 children could be Americans. Forever grateful. They gave us an education beyond the classroom.
Both my husbands parents came over after WW2.(they have passed) His grandmother died in a Siberian camp. I've tried to find anything I can through DNA testing etc. My husbands father's family was totally and completely wiped out. Like literally off the face of the earth. Absolutely nothing I still keep searching.
Thank you for sharing your family's story. It is sobering, especially in light of happenings in our world today. Your grandmother is a remarkable woman.
and now they are doing same thing to other people
@@explorer7913 They?
@@explorer7913 Are you speaking of Nina? She is doing nothing wrong. If you are saying you are on the side of the Palestinian terrorists, then I will tell you that I am not. I stand with Israel 🇮🇱.
What a beautiful woman. Your relationship with her is so special. Thank you for sharing her story with the rest of us. Her absolute pure light shines through and her way of coping and not only surviving but living is an example of the type of person we should all strive to be.
Yes but no yoga but
Bible
She knew a quality of human nature through her own experience. What a strong, deep and peaceful person. Thanks for sharing Nina's testimony. People need to know that there is always the remnant and nothing will be hidden and swept under a carpet. Love and shalom to everyone who is watching this amazing story.❤
I love her straightforward approach to life and the passion with which she kisses and loves her family. Thank you for making this moving film.
She is so insightfull, wise and beautiful soul, yet so strong.
This was wonderful. Much thanks to her for sharing her story
I watched this twice and then 3 times in a row. So moving and so thought-provoking. What she said her lesson was jarred me when I realized she was then talking about what they did to the Germans for revenge. Her story was a perspective I’ve never considered on every level. We are all so blessed that she survived and was given a chance at life and continuing her family. Thank you for sharing her story. Most of all, thank HER for sharing her story and that part of who she is with us.
I'm with Nina now and shared your beautiful comment. She's very moved and says thank you.
The Czechs did it to the Germans. Not the Jews.
Whats most daunting to me are the millions of people cheering.
We are easily swayed by popular opinion.
Bit like now aye!!
Exactly like now.@@trudiebothma8835
@@kimodering8869 Yes. Exactly like now. Unfortunately.
And many of the people rooting for the terrorists are so called 'lefty', ' progressive' or 'marxist' minded college students.
The West has been so naive allowing so many people of a certain religion, and others into their countries without serious vetting.
A strong civilization just doesn't hold up, if so many that want to destroy it are allowed in.
Cheering for terrorists!! This world has gone mad.
She is a VERY strong woman! Touching story.
What a beautiful, strong woman. Thank you for sharing your story. ❤
The best revenge is generations of family that never forgets…😢
An indomitable and inspiring woman is Nina. Thank you for sharing, in a small part, your story. 🙏🏻
Yes’s a wonderful person and absolutely not vengeful. Something to be admired.
Your grandmother is adorable. Love her wit; it hides her pain though. Thank you for sharing.
15:23 Hard agree with Grandma! 💝
The longer I live the more disgusted I become with my own species, it’s a weird feeling and not the outcome I’d expected… always thought we supposedly mellowed with age. But I feel a lot less kind now. 🥺
they were wise words ...
Wishing for you love joy and community.
It’s not the entire “Human species” that is worthy of disgust. Many, many great; compassionate and courageous people have always existed.
@@1LaOriental This is obvious
I'm afraid of becoming/feeling the same.
It was a pleasure to meet your Grandmother and hear her story. She is a beautiful woman.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful grandmother’s story. Now she will always be a blessing for us all.
Thank you so much for interviewing her and putting it here so all could see. It's so important. I'm sure there are more stories there.❤
"I don't analyze it, and that's what it is..."
"We are all born little adorable children...what happens? ...what happens?
Thank you for your film Daniel, your grandmother is a remarkable woman . Her words are very relevant today, thank you for sharing her wisdom.
Thank you for sharing your grandma's testimony about this terrible period and her insights about the human nature. It really made me think about my granpa who lost his two siblings in poor circumstances and the way he dealt with trauma.
Thank you for this excellent film! Nina is such a beautiful, thoughtful , wonderful lady! Thank you for letting us meet her in this documentary!
beautiful understated film - thank you for making it - made me cry
Thank you so much
You have a very special Grandmother and she has very special grandchildren. Savor every moment.
Daniel Lombroso Sir ! Thank you SO much for putting together this touching film giving us a natural look at your Grandmother's style of communicating ! Beautiful. Than You Sir.
Beautiful film and beautiful family. Thank you.
She has a beautiful family, I admire her strength. ❤
I truly enjoyed her candide, strong character and beauty. What a life to remember and to use as a model of strength and perseverance! Thank you for sharing... well done!
Thank you for sharing your grandmother’s journey. Important film.
Thank you for this. I was fortunate, my great grandparents emigrated to the States to escape the Kaiser . Your grandmother is an amazing woman.
Thank you Nina for sharing the story you’ve kept close to your heart all of these years. This documentary is beautifully done.
I love her straight forward honesty. When you live in a matter fact tragic war, a matter fact approach is the best way to deliver her story.
This was so deep, so expertly written and filmed, I cannot stop crying. This is what happens.
I understand completely why she didn't talk about it.. Talking isn't going to change anything. Sometimes events are so horrible the only way to keep going is to push it away. I completely understand that. If you dwell on something so inhumane, it seems to me, you'd just be angry. My question would have been, "How are you not angry?", but she answered that for me. It happened. There's nothing that can be done about that so move on.
I wish I had someone to tell me to guit being a baby about it and just move on. Grandmothers are precious. You're lucky you had forethought enough to record her.
Beautifully done. We needed this. ❤
Now more than ever it is so important that the stories and voices of these incredible people are being shared and heard!
Thank you for sharing their story.
Thank you all for sharing your story and family . ❤️
A very sane woman. Any assessment of humankind has to take into account our brutality in the context that we all know it's wrong
Thank you for sharing this beautiful woman with us.
So incredibly important. Thank you to you and Nina for creating this film.
So beautiful, very touching!
Daniell, thank you so much for sharing this with us all. Nina is truly inspiring. I appreciate her opening up about a very dark and painful time. Her candid strength is rare! It takes an amazing person to come up out of such pain and move forward in life and create such a beautiful family. Bless you all!
Thankyou for this glimpse of your grandma. She has great depth about life.
Thank you for sharing your story Nina. I'm so so very sorry you've experienced this horror. You have a beautiful soul ❤️
It's been really heartwarming. Thank you for this. ❤❤❤❤
What a beautiful family! ❤ Thanks for sharing Nina’s story.
It is heartbreaking, how many forget, do not know or do not believe. Heartbreaking. Thank you for this story. ❤
It really is heartbreaking. And soon, all those with living memory will be gone. Best we can do is preserve and tell their stories.
Sadly, there are new stories to be told by the survivors of 10/7.@@daniellombroso9060
" It was very nice except when it was annoying." .....I'm going to use this quote. A wonderful documentary, Daniel.
Thank you :) and that might be my favorite quote in the movie!
Grandma has a fun sense of humor. That was a very cute remark.
Sense able woman, no human should be treated horribly, she's kind
I appreciate her sharing her story so much! My grandmother had a renter that was German but due to religious reasons would not salute or participate in the German mentality then. His mother and himself were put in a concentration camp and he saw his mother shot in the head there. He rarely talked of it to. Most didn’t believe or want to hear. I watch everyone I can find! The wisdom the strength the sorrow but still compassion the survivors have is amazing.
Your grandmother is truly beautiful ❤️
Older Germans still live with the shame and guilt. Shocking for so many to have participated.
Nothing has changed, it’s happening today all over the world.
And you'd expect that Germany would sympathize the most with the Palestinian cause but all they did was aiding and abetting Israel with their genocidal war crimes.
Those who are cheering are only handful but those mourning can't be counted it's countless 😢❤🙏
Brilliant! An amazing radical new perspective (at least for me), dispassionate as it is, of a monstrous collective suffering. A huge lesson for the selfish, the cynics, the malevolent and the kind...
This was so lovely to watch. Would have enjoyed it if it had been much longer. Hope you add to this in the future. Thank you Nina for being willing to share your life. ❤😍❤
What a wonderful wise lady.
Thank you so much for sharing this very special story with us, beautifully filmed too.
"later never came." Trauma survivors understand this

Amazing, beautiful wise Lady
Incredible documentary!!!
Wow, thank you.
Thank you. So important. ❤
Thanks for sharing Ninas story with us ❤
Your grandmother is such a sweet and genuine beautiful woman! Cherish her for as long as you have her, my grandparents passed when I was a teenager and early 20’s before I got a chance to ask them about their childhoods and what my dad was like as a kid. I’d do anything to have them back but I just hope that everyone’s correct that we’re reunited with our loved ones after we pass.
Your sister was beautiful.
Such a beautiful, peaceful woman, inside and out. May her wish come true and many more to come. I wish you and your family all the best ❤
Beautiful documentary ❤ thank you
I loved this! Nina's directness and amazing smile really touched my heart. What a lovely grandson.
