Urged by his mother to "keep running", blond-haired and blue-eyed Shaya Szlas (Sam) hid in forests and farms across Eastern Poland, always staying one step ahead. Feigele Kamelgarn (Fay) survived the Lodz Ghetto and Auschwitz but rarely spoke about it, choosing to focus on love and family instead of her painful past. Joachim "Romek" Wimmer (Jack) endured cruelties laboring in a Nazi munitions factory by forming strong bonds with fellow prisoners. Decades later, the former prisoner-turned dental-implantology-pioneer, found a measure of courtroom justice against his Nazi oppressor. Sala Dreksler (Sally) learned how to expertly handle threads and needles, sewing Nazi uniforms as if her life depended on it – because it did.
