Synopsis

“The Secret Survivor” is the eye witness account by 92 year old Veronica Phillips - Hungarian Jew, born 9 November 1926, Budapest. She lives in Johannesburg today. After nearly 70 years of silence Veronica tells her story of surviving the Holocaust to film director, Johnathan Andrews. She remembers Budapest as teenager, waiting in line to get a Swiss letter of protection - possible through the efforts of Carl Lutz - the Arrow Cross, the Nazis, the concentration camps where she was held, a death march, and finding her way back home to Budapest. The film includes war time archival footage and interviews with historians and diplomats.
