Annotation

Just imagine that Hitler had a daughter named Heide, who survived and came to Australia after World War II. When she was young, French met with a person who, as a 14-year-old boy, was a believer in Nazism and how he hid this fact later in life. Hearing this story triggered Heide’s story, which encourages deep thinking about responsibility and consequences of beliefs.
