Details:

Eger was sixteen years old when the Nazis invaded her village in Hungary and took her and the rest of her family to Auschwitz. Upon entering the field, her parents were sent to the gas chamber and she remained with her sister, awaiting certain death. But dancing The Blue Danube for Mengele saved his life, and from then on a new fight for survival began. First in the extermination camps, then in Czechoslovakia taken over by the communists and, finally, in the United States, where she would end up becoming a disciple of Viktor Frankl. It was at that moment, after decades of hiding her past, that she realized the need to heal her wounds, to talk about the horror she had experienced and to forgive as a path to healing.
Its message is clear: we have the ability to escape the prisons we build in our minds and we can choose to be free, whatever the circumstances of our lives.
