On July 4, 1941, synagogues throughout Riga are burned to rubble including the Gogol Street Choral Synagogue, which is incinerated with hundreds of Jews locked inside.
Survivors narrate as viewers see the creation of the Riga ghetto, the segregation of able-bodied young men into the small ghetto, and the mass shootings of 26,000 on two separate days in the Rumbula aktions of late 1941 (the Riga Ghetto is seen above). Lieber's relatives are among the 26,000. However, that’s not all.
