Gidon sits in the same park where, in 1940, his grandfather Albert took him to play but that day, they were barred. A big sign said, in German, "No Jews Allowed".
Alfred Löw perished in Terezin in 1942, from complications due to malnutrition.
But, 79 years later, Gidon is able to sit in the same park and remember. He was quiet. What are you thinking, I asked him? I miss what I miss but I don't know what I miss, he said. The life I didn't have.
