What I liked

The mix of historical fact and intimate storytelling elevates both pieces, grounding the narrative in reality, while humanizing the often overlooked details of history. I really enjoyed the inclusion of real physical items and media from your family as well.

What I didn't like

The resolution felt very sudden and left me wanting more. It seems difficult to fit 2 full journeys into a 30 minute preview, I would to hear more details on both sides in a longer version!

My overall impression

Equal parts educational and emotional, a moving personal journey through the real journeys of two women fleeing their homes on a moment’s notice
