Children of The Holocaust
The Composer Works’ Paul Honey scored the BAFTA-nominated series for BBC Two produced by Fettle Animation about The Holocaust.
Divided into six short stories, BAFTA-nominated Children of The Holocaust features testimonies of child holocaust survivors who speak about their collective struggles, isolation and desperation during The Holocaust.
Eyewitness accounts from history, brought to life for a young audience in remarkable animation. Elderly survivors recount their childhood experiences of Nazi atrocities; their escape from occupied mainland Europe to Britain; adapting to life in the UK and the impact on their lives subsequently.
The series was broadcast on BBC Two from October 2014.
