Hedy Fladell was born on January 12, 1931, in the town of Sighet, Romania, to a family steeped in the traditions of Orthodox Judaism. She enjoyed a peaceful childhood in her close-knit community until the dark shadow of war swept across Europe. When the Nazis occupied her homeland, Hedy's life was turned upside down. In 1944, she and her family were forced into the Sighet Ghetto, confined under harsh and dehumanizing conditions. From the ghetto, Hedy was transported to Auschwitz II-Birkenau, one of the most infamous death camps in Poland. There, she faced unimaginable horrors and fought to survive each day amidst the atrocities surrounding her.

Les Derniers / The Last Ones is a documentary series created by Sophie Nahum. Each episode, around ten minutes long, portrays one of the very last Holocaust survivors. Over cheesecake, they talk about their childhood, the war and deportation, but also about what came after: rebuilding their lives and the deep concern with which they view the world today.
