Anka was an amazing, elegant lady. She told her story beautifully, with humour and sadness, Her testimony was an honour to hear. The interviewer seemed unsympathetic and asked irrelevant questions. However, Anka's performance was superb.

Dov Yawetz I have watched 120+ interviews and I have found, in most cases, that it is best to let the survivors tell their stories with minimal interruptions from the interviewer. They are reliving so much pain, and they need to be allowed to do this in their own way. Mrs. Bergman was an amazing woman!

@mocsaiorsolya5292 9 лет назад

My husband's step-grandfather was a suvivor of this camp ... He used to keep the relegion in some ways but after the war he always said "God has died with my two sons and my wife in the camps." Bless his heart, he lived on till 2007, died at the age of 96!

I wish millions would watch with an open mind and heart .. because it can happen again ! We need to be on guard.. thank you For sharing your life .. I wish you had written a book .. like you I have read everything on this and still cannot understand how these monsters happen to live among us.. but they do !!!!!

@seemarajderkar3019 3 года назад

Anca Bergman and her daughter Eva... Your story of survival is simply amazing. Thanks for sharing. I wish you both good health and many years of blissful togetherness.

@sebastianmelmoth685 4 года назад

I watch these regularly. I am not Jewish myself, but I make it my duty to keep these memories alive.

@carlprovorse1510 3 года назад

I feel Jewish but not by birth. I love these stories and share them quite often.

@kristabell5107 Год назад

What a woman. She’s the definition of strength. Yet also so warm and clearly adored her daughter, who his equally lovely. Thank you for sharing your story.

@donnaeve6084 7 лет назад

Wow what a story! And Eva looks just like her dad did,beautiful story of survival ✨

@ginagina9720 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing your story I was listening to your story with tears in my eyes RIP to all the people who died And god bless you…

@ninanina4799 3 года назад

I love this woman. My hero! What a positivity. What a spirit. No bitterness! She must have had survived to tell the story 💕 her and her beautiful, intelligent, sophisticated daughter cera Eva!

@rescuepetsrule6842 3 года назад

What a story- 2 babies born not only during the war, but 2 born in horrible camps! I have always been very grateful for my life and never take things for granted- I'd feel bad if I lost it all like the survivors and realize I was spoiled when I still had a good life. SALUTE Anna!

@JaimeMesChiens 4 года назад

Perhaps the most-amazing survivor narrative I’ve ever heard! Eva looks so much like her father. I may have missed it, but do not think his name was said. I’m going to watch again, anyway. Their wedding photo took my breath away. Both so beautiful. So is Eva.

@karennguyen4115 4 года назад

I think her father's name is bernd nathan

I love the lady’s house in the background. It reminds me of growing up. British style is very different to American in the 1990s. Most of these videos are filmed in America, so it is a novelty to hear one where the person left to live in Cardiff. The background reminds me of my grandad’s house or great grandma’s house. You can even hear the clock ticking in the background. Such brave survivors spread everywhere. These should be compulsory viewing in all schools everywhere. Lest we forget.

@emmaburgess4320 5 лет назад

The best of all I’ve watched!!!

@p0ppyfarr95 2 месяца назад

Absolute raw beauty from Anka and Eva. Beyond glad that they lived to tell the tale of their survival. I’ll never get the chance to meet Anna but I’d love to meet Eva someday.

@AmyK-jw5bu Год назад

I love her spunk and positive attitude! A tough lady!!! ❤️

@Haerton 10 лет назад

I thank you for sharing your story and am glad to have had the experience of hearing it. Llke you with your books on the subject, I seek out stories of experiences of those times to get to the why but doubt I ever shall, except to the normal, school yard bully reasons. So liked the honesty and smiles.

@abdussattar4881 3 года назад

Beautiful story ending. Eva looks just like her father. Blessed family.

@emmaburgess4320 6 лет назад

I wished I had. Met you .. I can’t remember how many times I’ve watched you!!!!

@j.williameustice6110 2 года назад

Her baby daughter is still alive and you can find her and her story easily online Eva Clarke “Against All Odds Born in Mauthausen” youtube.

@phyllisfleming7821 3 года назад

Wonderful woman so amazingly optimistic and full of positive thoughts. Interviewer is obnoxious, asking questions that had already been answered!

@petrahora9115 Год назад

I can't agree more, the interviewer is so painful. It is quite embarrasing. The survier is amazing.

@emmaburgess4320 6 лет назад

I have watched you over and over!!

@Somelady464 Год назад

I love that beautiful smile and chuckle❤

@marilyndonald9174 7 месяцев назад

I thought it was a mercy from heaven that the interviewing lady seemed to have a tender heart at difficult moments in the interview. Some healing can happen when a listening heart takes the time to ponder and care, when sorrows are expressed. Some survivor interviewers have seemed to me to be appallingly abrupt and cold hearted. Clearly Anka doesn’t EXPECT tender hearted people to be around her…. witness the way she thought it was kind of that man who reported her first husband’s death so bluntly and abruptly and with no maudlin attempts to help God heal her heart at such a hard moment. It amazes me how gratefully Anka and her daughter accepted whatever kind relationships came their ways over their lifetimes and how much love and respect they have for one another when their relationship started in a place like concentration camps. The many mercies Anka had even in those hellish places, including her own spunky, hopefully and resilient survivor spirit, and long-standing ability to keep on caring, in my mind, is more proof that the God of Israel who put Job through hard paces in order to elevate his memory for 6000 years, was alive and well throughout the holocaust and will still be alive and well through the last and final holocaust. May God be pleased to bless and keep Anka and Eva and their loved ones eternally.

@saminaali2705 Год назад

Great lady, so courageous and very positive, loved her interview

@marilyndonald9174 7 месяцев назад

A stunning testimony. Anka is so inspiring. Oh, l hope she finally realized that she is an adorable and blessed lady and that God loves her…. Before she entered eternity.

@layasaul28 2 года назад

I started watching this and the story was more and more familiar... This and two other stories in the book "Born Survivors: Three Young Mothers and Their Extraordinary Story of Courage, Defiance, and Hope".

@Jerseyboondocks 4 месяца назад

Wow! What an incredible story. But absolutely awful what happened to her how she lost her husband, her mother, her father, and how her little baby son died while she was in the camp

@metoofunny1 8 месяцев назад

I have watched many of these testimonies. This was a fabulous idea to have these testimonies recorded...but this interviewer here with this wonderful lady Anna Bergman, seemed to not understand ANYTHING about what the Holocaust was and asked ridiculous questions! Anna Bergman answered them with humor and grace, she was wonderful.

Let's also have one word about the child born in Treblinka (!!); Eva. Besides being beautiful and charming she is also a very wise woman and a joy listening to. I am thankful to her as well as her mother of course for this very frank, moving and iexceptional nterview. She and her family are really the ultimate revenge on Hitler! God bless them all.

@oceanrock733 3 года назад

Love her

@cammyshelton196 6 месяцев назад

What 2 Gorgeous ladies ❤

@johnforeman634 5 месяцев назад

I’m so proud of her that she could say religion means nothing to her. They were brought up free thinkers so she obviously rationalized how ridiculous the whole story is. So many people are just sheep and believe whatever people tell them.

@Jerseyboondocks 4 месяца назад

Exactly, but people are evolving not to believe in that much anymore, especially the newer generation. But my generation they are the majority believers so I was always looked at like the black sheep while they judged me from their supposed moral high ground

The amount of tape changes ruins the flow of the interview.

@MrPaultopp 3 года назад

So sorry the tape changes mess up your day ....very petty

@DebisDesignDiary 7 месяцев назад

Complaining about the inconvenience of tape changes? as this woman describes starvation and genocide? Wow.

@Jerseyboondocks 4 месяца назад

That's just so petty back then they had to change tapes. They didn't have the technology they have now. That's all you took away from this video. That's all you can comment about it?!

@redwater4778 5 лет назад

I heard the same donut story on another video from a different lady . Same.

@properlybonafidetv7172 4 года назад

ice water me too

@vin720 4 года назад

Or you nan't see the difference... 😕 Question of inteligence ?? Hm....

@claudiaperfetti7694 4 года назад

I think it is the same lady. She has many interviews!

@yosefyehudahbendavid7866 2 года назад

The "different lady" you are speaking of is her daughter who also retells her mother's donut story in her video entitled, Againts All Odds: Born in Mauthausen with Eva Clarke that you may also view here on RU-vid.

@gurungujonsdottir1086 2 года назад

Yes that is her daughter

@cindyhalpern3187 Год назад

This interviewer is the worst ever. Asking her terrible questions that she should not be asked. Only if she wished to tell it. How did she feel? What do you think she felt? This interviewer ought to be ashamed!

@melissaforgiven2825 7 лет назад

Hmm..I say no more. Well, She didn't care about her faith yet she wore her star proudly? Still has no faith? And I will never apologize for believing in Christ. Hitler, and his henchmen did not follow Christ. They were responsible.

@Pommy1957 4 года назад

Being Jewish is also a cultural identity , not only a religious one.

@allabiel3340 3 года назад

you cannot measure someone's faith by practice amount, maybe her non-practicing faith was more noble than your belief you're so religious and believing? it is more about what's in the heart not how much Bible you read, just because people go to church doesn't mean they're good people. Also, you don't understand what she said about wearing Star of David, she was proud of herself, not showing she is faithful at that moment, she said" she couldn't care less" she was forced to wear it, your interpretation is she was not faithful, but what kind of a christian are you to judge others?

@Jerseyboondocks 4 месяца назад

If I was her I would never believe in God either. At least not in a good god. Because a good god would never have allowed that to happen in the first place. For him to sit up there from his beloved paradise and watch people suffer is cruel and unforgivable
