Holocaust survivor Yisrael Abelesz tells his story to his granddaughter Avital.

This video is one of five produced by The Association of Jewish Refugees (AJR) in 2016. 'Generation2Generation' was an AJR initiative which produced films of grandchildren interviewing their grandparent about the experience of being a refugee or survivor of the Holocaust. It provided unique, first-hand video testimony of family interviews never previously recorded.
Yisrael Abelesz was born in Hungary in 1930. He was deported to Auschwitz at the age of 14. Yisrael survived the camp but his parents and young brother were murdered in the gas chambers.
