Alfred Schreyer (1922-2015) tells the story of his family - about a century of tragedy and courage. He was the only member of his family to survive the Holocaust. He returned to his hometown of Drohobych in what is now Ukraine. He was a singer and violinist in the local cinema foyer orchestra for many years. The only song he ever composed himself is called Bronitza Forest. Over 11,000 Jews were killed in this forest, including Schreyer's mother.
