Neuware - 'I think we both are at the border,' she says. .'And we both have to cross over.'A well-known American war photographer of thirty years struggling with PTSD, and an English forensic archaeologist digging at a Polish concentration camp, haunted by personal ghosts and the ghosts of the Holocaust, seek understanding in loss, and find meaning in one another.In an 1890s shtetl in the Russian Pale of Settlement a young man dreams that music from his violin might warm the heart of the daughter of a tavern, only to encounter life's tragedy, and life's journey.In 1942 a patient at the Krakow Babinski Mental Home remembers the boy who loved her and the old man who spoke kindnesses. She alone survives by embracing memory and finding hope. And in 1943 a young man traveling the secret Polish frozen paths with his father and brother is determined to save a young woman who has escaped from the Warsaw Ghetto, determined to hold onto her name. To remember her story.Tying these disparate generations is a broken violin called Memory-real and imagined fragments of experience that bring hope and salvation in word, in images, in music.
