Helga Weissova is 11 years old when she arrives with her parents in Terezin (1941). In her diary, which she illustrates with her own drawings, Helga recounts the suffering but also the little moments of joy, as if to respond to her father’s prayer: "Tell them what you see." Together, they are preparing an unusual book for his mother’s 37th birthday: And God saw that it was bad, the adventures of Aaron Tirés-man who is none other than God descended to Terezin!
