00:00In September 1943, Anna was returning from a shopping trip in Lviv in her carriage when she
00:05came across six nearly naked boys, aged 6 to 12, crouching by the side of the road.
00:11The children had escaped from a railcar destined for Somibor extermination camp,
00:15and they were terrified and hungry. When Anna realized they were Jewish escapees,
00:21she calmed them, took them home, and gained their trust by bringing them food from her kitchen.
00:26She understood very well that all Jews who were roaming the countryside were supposed to be
00:30captured and shot. Horst was not at home at the time, so she waited, but because he did not return
00:37after several hours, she decided to shoot the six children herself.
