(15 November 2018) Sergio Luzzato will speak today, on November 15th - eighty years from the Italian racial laws, and 70 from the birth of Israel - at 18.30 at the Institute of Culture in Munich, on the adventure of a surprising number of Jewish children, who escaped the Final Solution and sought refuge in Liberated Italy: about seven hundred very young Polish, Hungarian, Russian, and Romanian refugees after 1945 in the mountains of Selvino, in the Bergamo area. He will tell the adventure of Moshe Zeiri, the formidable Galician Jew who guided rescued children allowing them to be reborn as citizens of the new Israel. This is the story of a redemption. Tragically deprived of a family, of a house, of a language, irreparably robbed of their past, the orphans of the Shoah see the prospect of a future in the promised land, thanks to the Zionist emissaries: a future to be built together, males and females, as in a large family gathered in a «Selvino kibbutz».
