Grandfather Heinrich's notebook

The story of the friendship between a German boy and a Jewish boy, in the midst of World War II, which shows us how the bonds between people can overcome anything. Even war.
Heinrich and Józef meet in Poland at the beginning of World War II. Heinrich has just arrived from Germany and feels very lonely. Fortunately, everything quickly changes, and the friendship between them is born, grows, and gains extraordinary strength.

At that time, the man who had come to power in Germany decided that he would dominate the world and persecute all those he considered to be of inferior races, such as Jews or Roma, and also all people who resisted him. This man was called Adolf Hitler. He caused millions of victims, a true extermination that became known as the Holocaust.

This story, written with great sensitivity, tells us how Heinrich, the German boy, and his Jewish friend, Józef, managed to create and maintain their friendship, proving that affection and solidarity are stronger than the horror of war and death itself.

Grandpa Heinrich's Notebook shows us how the human capacity to create and appreciate beauty are fundamental to promoting peace and friendship among peoples.
