What I liked

Moti is telling a true story of a horrible time that his loved one went through. He adds in humorous anecdotes from his childhood and uses puppets to tell the worst parts, which lightens the heaviness, but only barely. You really can see from a Holocaust survivor’s view through his story-telling.

I also liked how he baked a cake through the course of the show and offered it and wine afterwards 👍

What I didn't like

It’s all good.

My overall impression

This wasn’t a “show” it was the telling of a story. An important story that needs to be told so it is not forgotten.
