Budapest Diaries
“Budapest Diaries” depicts the events of the final year of WWII and the Holocaust of the local Jews as documented in diaries written in real time by the Jews, their persecutors and bystanders. The diaries, written by “ordinary people” document the various perspectives of the persecution of the Jews, the battles that almost destroyed the city and the sobering up at the end of the war. They chronicle the rumors, the hopes, the bitter news and intimately detail without filters the feelings of the authors, their worldviews and often their darkest secrets.
