Wat leuk is a Dutch expression that translated to "how wonderful," or precisely "how nice."
I resonated to this tender, charming documentary of two Jewish young adults, living and growing up in Amsterdam, who suffered the trials of a transit camp and a concentration camp, surviving on their love letters.
Hope is a precious commodity in times of utter despair, and these two admirable survivors exhibit a love of life and a depth of understanding that transcends the pain and sorrow of the Holocaust.
I am certain this film will fill me up with possibilities as few documentaries or films of this era can provide.
I felt honoured they permitted the making of their story to share with us all.
