Nina\u2019s Journey takes place in Poland and the Warsaw ghetto during the second World War. The main characters are Nina Rajmic (the director\u2019s mother) and her family. The film portrays a young Jewish woman\u2019s coming of age under exceptional circumstances. Nina fell in love, she celebrated New Year\u2019s Eve parties, she graduated from senior high school \u2013 all in the Warsaw ghetto. When the war ended she was ready to start studying medicine. One could almost say that she experienced normal teenage years in those warped times.<\/p>\n

If it wasn\u2019t for the fact that everyone around her vanished, one by one.<\/p>\n

Nina\u2019s journey starts with a happy trip to America in 1937. She is twelve years old and looks forward to visiting her relatives in New York. It ends in 1945 when she returns to her apartment in Lodz: of all the family, of all the relatives and friends, of all her classmates \u2013 only she and her brother Rudek are alive. They are among those three hundred people out of half of a million who survived living through the entirety of the Warsaw ghetto.<\/p>\n

\u201cI never regretted not staying in America, never\u201d was Nina\u2019s remarkable reflection half a century later.<\/p>\n

Nina\u2019s Journey is a feature film, shot in Warsaw with Polish actors, but it has a documentary thread. The events portrayed in the film are commented by Nina herself, in an interview made before she passed away, in 2002.<\/p>\n
