Gratitude

As the Manilaners reminisce on their years of refuge in the Philippines, Margot Pins-Kestenbaum, Lotte Cassel-Hershfield, and Max Weissler express their deepest gratitude to the only country that opened its doors when everyone one else refused. The three Manilaners also talk about how the Filipino's compassion and hospitality gave them warmth after years of living with terror and agony, later creating a strong bond with the Jewish people especially in times of need.
