Faces of pupils at the school door, Berlin 1937

The pupils pass so close that faces fill the frame: a boy with dark hair and a tie looks back over his shoulder with a half smile, a boy in spectacles pushes past, a girl with curly hair and an open white collar laughs into the lens beside a fair-haired friend, and a dark-haired girl turns away in soft focus. These faces are among the few moving images of Jewish schoolchildren in Nazi Berlin; most of the children would leave Germany, and many did not.
