Benjamin Fogel, a French writer, has broken his personal vow not to share his grandfather's story. His grandfather was deported in 1943 and survived the Sobibor extermination camp. Fogel used numerous testimonies and documents to tell the incredible story of the 'Escaped from Convoy 53'. This story is significant as it preserves the memory of Holocaust survivors and educates the public about this dark period in history.
