    Her statement about not hating, not wanting to hate, describing herself as carrying pain, instead, brought me to tears. A woman who has every reason in the world to hate, but refuses to let that imbue her soul because of its association with evil and the evil done in its name. Out of everything she says, that was the most powerful. What a lesson.

I would find the worst, most festering, most odorous, pile of dog feces (I'm not talking about Goeth. I mean, actual dog feces) I could. And then I would show up to that motherf@#$er's execution and do everything I could to force feed those feces to that wretch before he swung. Sorry not sorry.

    Helena's testimony is a story of survival against evil, which is very different to many other stories of survival during the Nazi occupation of Poland. Helena Jonas Rosenzweig was an eye witness. As she said, her experience was one where she was completely alone, she had to endure the daily sadism and mental abuse of an evil man, without any support from family or friends. I admire how she helped others at the constant risk of capture. How she stole important documents. I also liked the way she portrayed Oskar Schindler as being a "decent man" and not as a deity. A human being who was prepared to support the weak and vulnerable.
    There are an uncountable number of testimonies to the barbarity by some during the Second World War. However, this story stands out to me as a reliable eye witness to a sadistic Concentration Camp Commander.

    And by the way--- to the others who have written here-- no money in the world could compensate for the pain and suffering done to the survivors and their families and friends who perished. One would have preferred to be poor, free, and their peace of mind and communities in tact, I assure you.

    Came here after watching the documentary of her returning to the camp and the house and meeting Amon Goeth's daughter Monika. Utterly heart wrenching and much harder to watch than I thought it would be.

    What a beautiful soul. I have been watching these interviews this past month and each one is a unique story of human grace against utter evil. I am so glad these were recorded. We must not forget.

    Ive Watched a few interviews with this lovely woman and the thing that strikes me most is how passionate she is about her friends and the people that lost their lives in that terrible concentration camp. It moves me beyond description.

    I also watched a lot of memories and interviews with Holocaust Survivors, but Helen's story hit me incredibly strong. This Brave Woman told it so vividly, so detailed, so emotionally that her emotions touched me so deeply that I got chills. However bad and inappropriate it may sound, with all due respect to all those who gave their lives in the extermination camps, Helen's story is better listened to than any film on this subject could convey. It made me move to pre-war Krakow, to the ghetto, to the camp, to Goeth's villa. It was incredibly vivid. And this awareness, surprise, that She was Helen Hirsch's companion in misery, whose story we learned thanks to Schindler's List. An amazing Woman. Unique. Dividend. So Good. Peace to Her Soul❤😢

      Millions of people lost family members in that horrible war and during that horrible time, Jewish or non Jewish.
      You being 62 or 63 now means that you did not know any person who didn’t make it through WW2 and that even your parents were children during that time. Also even your grandparents made it in contrast to some of mine who died in a concentration camp. It appears to be inadequate for you to claim hurt feelings. Leave that to people who really suffered or lost loved ones.

    "Hate brings evil!" Mark Helen Jonas-Rosenzweig's word's! Being German I am disgusted beyond any expression about the crimes of the Nazis. Bliss, love and compassion are the feelings I would like to be dominant in people and I will do whatever I can to make my contribution. I am confident it will happen since it is so much nicer to feel love than hatred.

    I would wish Amon Goeth alive today just one day, long enough to know he had a tall, intelligent, beautiful BLACK granddaughter! I am neither Jewish, Black or any other ethnicity other than 100%, came in the 16th century to American, lady. But justice is not served by hanging evil inhuman things like Amon, they should have to spend their days in the same abject horror and suffering they perpertrated on the helpless. His Black granddaughter is 10,000 the better person her grandfather and grandmother Ruth could ever have imagined in their wildest dreams.

    The pain this woman endured is unimaginable. She lost family, friends, and went through horrors unknown. She survived the holocaust, married, had children, but her husband ended his own life. He, too was a holocaust survivor, and the pain he went through finally broke him. I can't imagine her pain. She later met Amon Goeth's daughter, inside Amon's villa. This woman was comforted by Amon's Goeth's own daughter as Helena cried, remembering how Amon had abused her. Not in a million years, did this woman imagine that would ever happen...but it did! A true survivor, indeed.

    I was first introduced to Helena in the doc called Inheritance.such a strong woman.she lived a long life and refused to let resentments destroy her. She was able to create a relationship with Goeth's daughter.she didn't hold any resentment against the daughter,but she was very straight forward with her about the true nature of her father. Many Germans today disassociate from the reality of the war and holocaust.History is my favorite subject.how can we shape the future if we can't learn from the past? Never forget.Never again.
