Martina Batel

Step 1

We learned about

the word

„Holocaust” and

racial laws in Third

Reich towards the

Jews

Step 2

We learned about

Nazi puppet state

NDH and Ustasha

movement

Reading the book The Diary of Anne

Frank

After reading the

book we depicted 2

film versions in order

to compare the book

and the film

We started with Croatian story –The destiny

of Lea Deutsch

In classroom we had 3 workshop in order to

depict the theme:

1. Lea's life before Holocaust- artistic

contribute to HNK

2. racial law time -Lea cannot perform

anymore

Zakonska odredba o zaštiti arijske kulture hrvatskog naroda

čl. 1.

Židovi po rasi ne smiju nikakvom suradnjom utjecati na izgradnju narodne i arijske kulture, pa im se zabranjuje svako sudjelovanje u radu, organizacijama i ustanovama, društvenog,omladinskog, sportskog i kulturnog života hrvatskog naroda uopće, a napose u književnosti, novinarstvu, likovnoj i glazbenoj umjetnosti, urbanizmu, kazalištu i filmu.

3. The last days of Lea's life

In order to discuss Lea's impact on HNK (if

had she survived the Holocaust)-we analized

a testimony of Croatian actor Relja Bašić,

who had a chance to met Lea during his

childhood

For homework we watched a Croatian film

Lea and Darija directed by Branko Ivanda

As a final step we wrote an essay to

compare the destiny of both Lea and Anna:

1. Two similar stories

2. Two 13 year old girls born as Jews

3. Born in different countrys, miles away

4. Both talented and lost among one milion

kids killed in Holocaust
