11 AM LOS ANGELES • 2 PM NEW YORK
Sabotage tells the dramatic and unknown story of the women’s underground operation in Auschwitz-Birkenau. It is a story of feminine heroism, resistance, hope and tragedy, told through the eyes of Anna Heilman, sister of Estera Wajcblum, the youngest member of the women’s resistance group, that also included Róza Robota, Ella Gärtner and Regina Safirsztajn. These heroic women, whose names we should remember, helped plan and implement the Sondercommando Revolt of October 7, 1944.
