With the coming
-
of the Second World War...
|
2 |
00:01:26.557 |
00:01:30.550 |
|
-
...many eyes in imprisoned Europe
-
turned hopefully, or desperately...
|
3 |
00:01:30.895 |
00:01:33.557 |
|
-
...toward the freedom of the Americas.
|
4 |
00:01:33.797 |
00:01:36.425 |
|
-
Lisbon became
-
the great embarkation point.
|
5 |
00:01:36.634 |
00:01:39.797 |
|
-
But not everybody could get
-
to Lisbon directly.
|
6 |
00:01:40.237 |
00:01:43.900 |
|
-
And so a torturous, roundabout
-
refugee trail sprang up.
|
7 |
00:01:44.942 |
00:01:46.569 |
|
-
Paris to Marseilles...
|
8 |
00:01:52.583 |
00:01:55.245 |
|
-
...across the Mediterranean to Oran.
|
9 |
00:02:2.593 |
00:02:7.053 |
|
-
Then, by train or auto or foot,
-
across the rim of Africa...
|
10 |
00:02:7.264 |
00:02:9.755 |
|
-
...to Casablanca in French Morocco.
|
11 |
00:02:10.034 |
00:02:14.528 |
|
-
Here, the fortunate ones,
-
through money or influence or luck...
|
12 |
00:02:14.872 |
00:02:18.205 |
|
-
...might obtain exit visas
-
and scurry to Lisbon.
|
13 |
00:02:18.576 |
00:02:20.806 |
|
-
And from Lisbon to the New World.
|
14 |
00:02:21.011 |
00:02:24.208 |
|
-
But the others wait in Casablanca.
|
15 |
00:02:24.882 |
00:02:28.374 |
|
-
And wait and wait...
