Sometimes l knocked at the door,
and with my very poor English...
1:02:04
...tried to explain what it was all about...
1:02:07
...who I was, what I wanted,
what I needed: heIp.
1:02:12
I did find someone...
1:02:14
...and it was just...
1:02:17
...Iike an unbeIievabIe dream come true.
1:02:23
My father had a first cousin...
1:02:26
...in London.
1:02:28
Every weekend l took the train
into London...
1:02:32
...and bombarded him.
1:02:34
l said, ´´Uncle Paul...
1:02:37
"´...you´ve got to get my parents
out of Germany."´
1:02:40
He said, "´I can´t do it."´
1:02:44
After me being so...
1:02:47
...insistent he finally said:
1:02:49
"´I´II give him an affidavit
if he has a working permit."´
1:02:55
l went back to the Rothschild estate...
1:02:59
...knocked on the door...
1:03:01
...and the butIer,
who was about 10-foot-6...
1:03:04
...came out ...
1:03:07
...and said to me:
1:03:09
"´What do you want?"´
1:03:11
I said,
"´I want to speak to Baron RothschiId."´
1:03:17
He said, "´Wait here."´
1:03:20
I waited.
1:03:23
A coupIe of minutes Iater he says:
1:03:26
"´FoIIow me."´
1:03:29
l said to him, ´´Baron Rothschild...
1:03:31
´´...my father´s cousin will give him...
1:03:34
´´...and my mother a visa...
1:03:36
´´...provided he has a working permit. ´´
1:03:39
Without hesitation...
1:03:42
...he said to me,
"´WouId he work on a chicken farm?"´
1:03:46
I said, "´He´II do anything."´
1:03:48
He went to a notary...
1:03:50
...and made out a working permit
for my parents.
1:03:56
The family that chose me
were the only people...
