Her ability to stomach the harshest of realities - which allowed her to go on after the Holocaust, marry, raise children and live normally - is tested when she returns to a place that brought her unimaginable suffering.

After half a century, Pola, who never spoke about the Holocaust to her children, decides to travel back to Kraków with a bus full of high school and college students, lecturing and sharing her stories as they go.

Before she takes off, Pola confides to the camera that she knows this trip will not be pleasant, but she feels it's necessary to confront truths she's been avoiding.

Pola feels obligated to educate young people in hopes of preventing future acts of inhumanity.

But her stomach turns in knots when she visits the concentration camps and she is full of doubt as to whether or not the trip was a good idea.
