Ginette Kolinka, a Holocaust survivor, was deported to Auschwitz in April 1944 at the age of 19, along with her father, brother and nephew. They were murdered when the convoy arrived. Ginette, on the other hand, is selected for work and she survives. For more than twenty years, she has been going to Auschwitz with groups of students. In October 2020, she is at Birkenau for the last time. She is accompanied by a journalist, Victor Matet and a comic book author, Jean-David Morvan. From this meeting is born an album Adieu Birkenau, in which Ginette Kolinka tells what was her life before, during and after the Holocaust. The Shoah Memorial in partnership with the publisher Albin Michel, has created from the comic strip, a traveling exhibition. The exhibition, weaving links between comic strips and period documents, archives and photographs, places Ginette Kolinka’s career in a broader history of the persecution of Jews in France during the Second World War.
