This episode centres on Holocaust survivor Eva Clarke BEM’s birth certificate. Eva was born in Mauthausen concentration camp on 29 April 1945. Her mother Anka was imprisoned in Auschwitz–Birkenau from 1 - 10 October 1944, after she volunteered to follow her husband who had been deported there from Terezin. 15 members of Eva’s immediate family were murdered in Auschwitz-Birkenau but Anka survived against all odds.
