Margot's mother came from a Jewish family, her father from a Protestant, non-Jewish family. Margot experienced the persecution and murder of her closest relatives, the absurdities of National Socialist racial policy, but also unbreakable loyalty and the power of music. It was only when she became a widow for the second time at the age of 60 that she began to talk about her Jewish roots. In a moderated conversation with Monika Grübel, Christine Bücher looks back on the eventful life of her aunt Margot and tells how she repeatedly came across the unexpected while researching her family history.
