A Donatello award nominated documentary following nine Italian survivors of the Auschwitz concentration camp.

Thirty years after Primo Levi's death, Rai Cultura assembles a portrait that refuses to reduce him to the single label of Holocaust witness. Ten scholars, journalists and friends - among them the historian Carlo Ginzburg, the survivor and senator Liliana Segre, and his editor Ernesto Ferrero - each take up a different facet of a man who was novelist, poet, essayist, industrial chemist, amateur astronomer and mountaineer. Running through the film is the testimony of Ives Francisco, the young partisan arrested alongside Levi in the Aosta Valley in December 1943; the skis Levi left behind later carried Francisco into Switzerland and back again after the war, and give the film its title. Archive interviews return Levi's own voice on memory, work, writing and his Jewish roots.

Mixing dramatizations and real-life interviews, this film tells the story of four Jewish children who endured the brutal anti-Semitism of fascist Italy.

A documentary film that recounts the life of Vera Vigevani Jarach, through a firsthand account of two experiences that, over time and in different places, shaped her life, confronting her under two different dictatorships that made deportation and physical elimination commonplace: Nazism and Fascism and the Argentine dictatorship. The disappearance of her daughter Franca inspired Vera to become a founder of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo and a "memory activist," touring Italy and Argentina to tell her two stories, ensuring that these horrors never happen again.
