Dutch the podcast - Episode 13 - Skate to Survive

Ellen Burka escaped deportation to Nazi Death Camps Auschwitz and Sobibor because she was a figure skating star. She was sent to concentration camp Theresienstadt instead and survived the Holocaust. After the war she settled in Canada with her two daughters Petra and Astra and became an immensely successful skating coach. Ellen’s daughter Astra made a film about her mother’s life called ‘Skate to Survive’. We talk to Astra about Ellen’s inspiring story, and Astra’s own work as an architect and filmmaker.
