- Notes
- A week before the selection, Sura sewed work clothes for her son Samuel - he didn't know why, but his mother wanted him to look like an adult. During the selection process, he was directed to the right; he looked back, no one from his family was following him. He wanted to join them, but then an SS man kicked him and told him to go to the right. People turned to the left, including Samuel's entire family, were deported.
